Subject [IBO] LockWait seems does not work
Author Stefano Campri
i'm using : Delphi 5, IBO 4 evaluation , Interbase 5.5

i'm running the Test_series.dpr downloaded from
www.ibobjects.com/docs/ti_AuditableSeries.ZIP

following the instructions on the technical information shett
*********************************************************
Making use of Planned Deadlocks
When the transaction goes to post the new record, it first runs through its
Before Insert triggers and comes to the one in position 9. There, it looks
to see if any log rows exist containing recycled invoice numbers. If so, it
"grabs" the lowest number and performs a dummy update - SET STATUS=STATUS.
This causes InterBase to lock the set of available rows. Because each
user's transaction also has LockWait set to true, this causes the Deadlock
condition for all other contenders for the lowest number. LockWait tells
the database engine that, if a lock is encountered, the transaction wants to
wait until the conflict goes away.

i don't get any Deadlock error so i think there is something wrong in
LockWait

Any help would be appreciate

Thanks in advance,
