Subject Transaction access mode (read only vs. read write) from context?
Author Omacht András

Hi All!

 

According to the documentation (https://firebirdsql.org/refdocs/langrefupd20-get-context.html) I can retrive the transaction’s isolation level:

select rdb$get_context('SYSTEM', 'ISOLATION_LEVEL') from rdb$database

 

But I need to know the access mode too. Is this possible somehow to know it via contexts?

 

I know there is a way queriing it via mon$ tables:

 

select t.mon$read_only

  from mon$transactions t

  where t.mon$transaction_id = current_transaction

 

but if I remember correctly Vlad said - at one of the conferences – it was very expensive operation to query the mon$ tables for a lot of transactions (because of the full database lock while it’s processing).

 

Thanks,

 

András
