	Why don't you unlock the table first ? –  David V. Mar 23 '10 at 13:07 6   @David V.: I guess because he needs to know it is locked first? Or maybe he want's to avoid 'touching' the table when/if it is locked? –  lexu Mar 23 '10 at 13:11 O_O Ooooh my bad, I read that as "delete" (and deleting in the title) locked tables. –  David V. Mar 23 '10 at 13:42 add a comment

You might also want to look into using INSERT DELAYED instead. share |improve this answer edited Sep 15 at 9:32     answered  Apr 5 '10 at 18:48 confiq 905719

You can create your own lock with GET_LOCK(lockName,timeOut) If you do a GET_LOCK(lockName, 0) with a 0 time out before you lock the tables and then follow that with a RELEASE_LOCK(lockName) then all other threads performing a GET_LOCK() will get a value of 0 which will tell them that the lock is being held by another thread. However this won't work if you don't have all threads calling GET_LOCK() before locking tables. The documentation for locking tables is here Hope that helps! share |improve this answer answered  Mar 31 '10 at 11:07 Giles Smith 1087

this only works for named locks what about non named locks? –  Marcin Apr 5 '10 at 12:32 You can't for non named locks –  Giles Smith Apr 6 '10 at 16:31 add a comment
