Checks the lock status of the current record.
This example uses the following input:
IsRecordLocked(Table1, True);
NOTE: If ByAnyone is true, then the function also checks if any other session has the record locked. If ByAnyone is false, then only the current session is checked. The function returns False if not locked, and True if locked.
function IsRecordLocked(Table: TTable; ByAnyone: boolean): boolean;

var

  Locked: BOOL;

  hCur: hDBICur;

  rslt: DBIResult;



begin

  Table.UpdateCursorPos;

  // Is the record locked by the current session...

  Check(DbiIsRecordLocked(Table.Handle, Locked));

  Result := Locked;

  // If the current session does not have a lock and the ByAnyone varable is

  // set to check all sessions, continue check...

  if (Result = False) and (ByAnyone = True) then

  begin

    // Get a new cursor to the same record...

    Check(DbiCloneCursor(Table.Handle, False, False, hCur));

    try

      // Try and get the record with a write lock...

      rslt := DbiGetRecord(hCur, dbiWRITELOCK, nil, nil);

      if rslt <> DBIERR_NONE then

      begin

        // if an error occured and it is a lock error, return true...

        if HiByte(rslt) = ERRCAT_LOCKCONFLICT then

          Result := True

        else

          // If some other error happened, throw an exception...

          Check(rslt);

      end

      else

        // Release the lock in this session if the function was successful...

        Check(DbiRelRecordLock(hCur, False));

    finally

      // Close the cloned cursor...

      Check(DbiCloseCursor(hCur));

    end;

  end;

end;
