## org.hibernate
Enum LockMode

    java.lang.Object
      java.lang.Enum<LockMode>
          org.hibernate.LockMode

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable, Comparable<LockMode>

    public enum LockMode

extends Enum<LockMode>

Instances represent a lock mode for a row of a relational database table. It is not intended that users spend much time worrying about locking since Hibernate usually obtains exactly the right lock level automatically. Some "advanced" users may wish to explicitly specify lock levels.

See Also:
  `Session.lock(Object, LockMode)`

Enum Constant Summary
`FORCE` Deprecated. instead use PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT
`NONE` No lock required.
`OPTIMISTIC` Optimisticly assume that transaction will not experience contention for entities.
`OPTIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT` Optimisticly assume that transaction will not experience contention for entities.
`PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT` Transaction will immediately increment the entity version.
`PESSIMISTIC_READ` Implemented as PESSIMISTIC_WRITE.
`PESSIMISTIC_WRITE` Transaction will obtain a database lock immediately.
`READ` A shared lock.
`UPGRADE` Deprecated. instead use PESSIMISTIC_WRITE
`UPGRADE_NOWAIT` Attempt to obtain an upgrade lock, using an Oracle-style `select for update nowait`.
`WRITE` A `WRITE` lock is obtained when an object is updated or inserted.

Method Summary
`boolean` | `greaterThan(LockMode mode)` Check if this lock mode is more restrictive than the given lock mode.
`boolean` | `lessThan(LockMode mode)` Check if this lock mode is less restrictive than the given lock mode.
`static LockMode` | `valueOf(String name)` Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
`static LockMode[]` | `values()` Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Detail

### NONE

    public static final LockMode NONE

  No lock required. If an object is requested with this lock mode, a `READ` lock will be obtained if it is necessary to actually read the state from the database, rather than pull it from a cache.
  This is the "default" lock mode.

### READ

    public static final LockMode READ

  A shared lock. Objects in this lock mode were read from the database in the current transaction, rather than being pulled from a cache.

### UPGRADE

    @Deprecated
    public static final LockMode UPGRADE

  Deprecated. instead use PESSIMISTIC_WRITE
  An upgrade lock. Objects loaded in this lock mode are materialized using an SQL `select ... for update`.

### UPGRADE_NOWAIT

    public static final LockMode UPGRADE_NOWAIT

  Attempt to obtain an upgrade lock, using an Oracle-style `select for update nowait`. The semantics of this lock mode, once obtained, are the same as `UPGRADE`.

### WRITE

    public static final LockMode WRITE

  A `WRITE` lock is obtained when an object is updated or inserted. This lock mode is for internal use only and is not a valid mode for `load()` or `lock()` (both of which throw exceptions if WRITE is specified).

### FORCE

    @Deprecated
    public static final LockMode FORCE

  Deprecated. instead use PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT
  Similiar to `UPGRADE` except that, for versioned entities, it results in a forced version increment.

### OPTIMISTIC

    public static final LockMode OPTIMISTIC

  Optimisticly assume that transaction will not experience contention for entities. The entity version will be verified near the transaction end.

### OPTIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT

    public static final LockMode OPTIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT

  Optimisticly assume that transaction will not experience contention for entities. The entity version will be verified and incremented near the transaction end.

### PESSIMISTIC_READ

    public static final LockMode PESSIMISTIC_READ

  Implemented as PESSIMISTIC_WRITE. TODO: introduce separate support for PESSIMISTIC_READ

### PESSIMISTIC_WRITE

    public static final LockMode PESSIMISTIC_WRITE

  Transaction will obtain a database lock immediately. TODO: add PESSIMISTIC_WRITE_NOWAIT

### PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT

    public static final LockMode PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT

  Transaction will immediately increment the entity version.

Method Detail

### values

    public static LockMode[] values()

  Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

      for (LockMode c : LockMode.values())
          System.out.println(c);

  Returns:
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

### valueOf

    public static LockMode valueOf(String name)

  Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

  Parameters:
    `name` - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
  Returns:
    the enum constant with the specified name
  Throws:
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    `NullPointerException` - if the argument is null

### greaterThan

    public boolean greaterThan(LockMode mode)

  Check if this lock mode is more restrictive than the given lock mode.

  Parameters:
    `mode` - LockMode to check
  Returns:
    true if this lock mode is more restrictive than given lock mode

### lessThan

    public boolean lessThan(LockMode mode)

  Check if this lock mode is less restrictive than the given lock mode.

  Parameters:
    `mode` - LockMode to check
  Returns:
    true if this lock mode is less restrictive than given lock mode
