In particular: - Is the translation of a lock on a fine-grain object to one of the cluster transparent to the application? - probably yes. - Is a lock on a cluster equivalent to locks on all the fine-grain objects in the cluster? - presumably yes. - Can LOCK_SET_OBJECT and LOCK_UNSET_OBJECT be used on fine-grain objects? - presumably yes. - If 2 locks are acquired to different fine-grain objects in a cluster via LOCK_SET_OBJECT and the first is then released via LOCK_UNSET_OBJECT, does the second still hold or not? - presumably not. N.B. this does not affect the corresponding PDAMs to the other 2 parts of ISO/IEC 13719 so the UK response to those PDAM ballots (SC22 N2176, N2177) should be approval without comment. ________________________________end of document SC22 N2326 ___________
