Declaration

tibas_status tibasSpaceDef_GetLockScope(
    tibasSpaceDef    spaceDef,
    tibas_lockScope* lockScope);

Parameter	Description
`SpaceDef`	Specify the spaceDef object that identifies the space for which you want to get the lock scope value.

Use the tibasSpaceDef_GetLockScope() function to return the lock scope value that is set for a specified space.

Setting a lock scope prevents either threads or processes from writing over locked data.

The lock scope value can be one of the following:

TIBAS_LOCK_SCOPE_NONE: Specifies that locks do not have a scope.
TIBAS_LOCK_SCOPE_THREAD: Specifies that threads cannot write over data that is locked by another thread.
TIBAS_LOCK_SCOPE_PROCESS: Specifies that processes cannot write over data that is locked by another process; however, threads within the same process can overwrite data locked by another thread in the process.
