I have a very quick protected object question. In a standard proected
object setup as follows:
protected Test is
procedure A;
procedure B;
private
Z : integer := 0;
end Test;
protected body Test is
procedure A is
begin
< set of statements>
end A;
procedure B is
begin
< set of statements>
end B;
end Test;
The question is this: when procedure A is called, are all threads that
try to call B suspended until A finishes or, do the threads that call
B execute as long as A is not touching the private data "Z". Is the
lock at the procedure level or only at the data level?
Thank you.
