Unlock PL/SQL Table: Quick Guide

In PL/SQL, there are no specific statements for locking and unlocking tables; typically, tables are locked and unlocked using the locking mechanisms provided by the database management system.

In Oracle database, you can lock a table using the following statement:

LOCK TABLE table_name IN EXCLUSIVE MODE;

To unlock the table, simply submit the transaction.

COMMIT;

Alternatively, you can use the following statement to release the lock on the table:

UNLOCK TABLE table_name;

It is important to note that locking a table is a cautious operation and should only be used when necessary. The lock should be released as soon as possible to avoid interfering with other sessions’ access to the table.
