Unlock

The Unlock method enables other clients to modify the variables stored in the Application object after it has been locked using the Lock method. If you do not call this method explicitly, the Web server unlocks the Application object when the .asp file ends or times out.

Syntax

Application.Unlock
 

Example

<% 
Application.Lock
Application("NumVisits") = Application("NumVisits") + 1
Application.Unlock
%> 
 
This application page has been visited 
<%= Application("NumVisits") %>  times!
 

In the preceding example the Unlock method releases the locked object so that the next client can increment NumVisits.

Applies To
