If everyone is read-only then there should be no collisions. Read- locks and write-locks are different. A write-lock prevents everyone else from reading or writing. A read-lock prevents anyone else from writing but allows any number of other readers.
This is true for schema reads and writes too, like reading for the presence of a given table. If some other process has a write lock on the master schema table (adding or removing tables) then the read will fail. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
