How to use optimistic locking in Procedure upd_account, or I should use it in some other way?

I can not find anything about consistent read. Is it associated with optimistic locking? how to use consistent read? (or to make a new question)

I am sorry if I did not explain well.

I'm a beginner in Oracle

I am work in oracle 12c release 2

Thank you advance

I have package body and it look like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY account_api AS

        ...

        PROCEDURE upd_account
           (p_acc_id     accounts.acc_id%type
             , p_acc_name   accounts.acc_name%type
             , p_acc_amount accounts.acc_amount%type
             , p_acc_date   accounts.acc_date%type
        )
         IS
       BEGIN
           UPDATE accounts
            set acc_name = p_acc_name
              , acc_amount = p_acc_amount
              , acc_date   = p_acc_date
           WHERE acc_id = p_acc_id;
       COMMIT;
      END;
       PROCEDURE del_accounts
          (p_acc_id     accounts.acc_id%type)
       IS  
        BEGIN 
        DELETE FROM accounts WHERE acc_id = p_acc_id;
        COMMIT;
        EXCEPTION
          WHEN OTHERS THEN
          ROLLBACK;
          RAISE;
       END;
            FUNCTION get_amount
          (p_acc_id    accounts.acc_id%type)
       return Number is res number;
       begin
         select acc_amount into res
         from  accounts where acc_id = p_acc_id;
          return res;
      end;
      FUNCTION get_date
          (p_acc_id    accounts.acc_id%type)
       RETURN date IS res1 date;
      BEGIN
          SELECT acc_date INTO res1
          FROM accounts WHERE acc_id = p_acc_id;
          RETURN res1;
      end;
      end account_api;
      /

My comment? Don't worry about "optimistic locking", just let Uncle Oracle manage it. However, you should not be committing in those procedures, the commit should be done (or not) by the process that calls the procedure. For example, what if I am in the middle of some complicated operation, I call your procedure, and it goes and commits everything I've done! No thank you.

I do this as an exercise, in the task it is written that I pay attention to multiple use by the user, that more users can change values for the same acc_id.
and to look optimistic vs pessimistic locking and consistent read

There is nothing specific to "end". The code ends with its last line. What do you mean by this?

I tried this as well but report a mistake

I added 1 row in table which is timestamp
create table accounts (
    	acc_id 		number,
    	acc_name 	varchar2(32),
    	acc_amount	number,
    	acc_date 	date,
    	acc_lock_id 	timestamp not null
    );
And my procedure look like this now
There is some mistake here, and I do not know if this is the right way
   PROCEDURE read_account(
    	       p_acc_id      accounts.acc_id%type
            )
    	is
    	begin
    	    SET NOCOUNT ON
    	      SELECT
    		acc_id
    	      , acc_name
    	      , acc_amount
    	      , acc_date
    	      , CONVERT(BIGINT, acc_lock_id) AS acc_lock_id
    		FROM
    			accounts
    		WHERE
    			acc_id = p_acc_id
    	end;
    	        
            PROCEDURE upd_account
               (p_acc_id     accounts.acc_id%type
                 , p_acc_name   accounts.acc_name%type
                 , p_acc_amount accounts.acc_amount%type
                 , p_acc_date   accounts.acc_date%type
    	     , p_acc_lock_id accounts.acc_lock_id%type
            )
             IS
           BEGIN
    	   SET NOCOUNT ON
               UPDATE accounts
         		set acc_name = p_acc_name
         		  , acc_amount = p_acc_amount
         		  , acc_date   = p_acc_date
               WHERE acc_id = p_acc_id;
    	   AND
    		acc_lock_id =  p_acc_lock_id accounts.acc_lock_id%type
          END;

MISTAKE?
What mistake?
I don't see any mistake.

SHOW us what you do & how Oracle responds using COPY & PASTE

>acc_lock_id = p_acc_lock_id accounts.acc_lock_id%type
not as above, but as below
acc_lock_id = p_acc_lock_id accounts.acc_lock_id

You teacher may be wanting you to use a structure such as SELECT FOR UPDATE or perhaps SET TRANSACTION READ ONLY or SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE to implement the various ANSI isolation levels. Have you read about them yet? For example,
https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/testcontent/o65asktom-082389.html

I think he has to convert some Transact-SQL code to PL/SQL but is not skilled to do it and doesn't actually want to learn PL/SQL but us to do his job as his previous topics and their ignored advises show it.

Excuse me for "set nocount on" I copied the code by mistake.

when this is corrected whether the code is good?

@mc Yes, I see that SET NOCOUNT ON and the CONVERT(BIGINT) thing are from SQL Server.

@op, Why did you not say that you are re-writing SQL Server code into PL/SQL? Apart from that, you have to do a bit of work yourself. I know that many SQL Server people find the idea of "work" rather unpleasant, but there is no alternative. Try to compile your code and see what errors you get. I can assure you that you are going to get some.

I know the difference between "Optimistic vs Pessimistic locking", but I do not know how to use the optimistic lock on the procedure.

I can not find anything on the Internet, and that's why I asked the question here

My procedure without optimistic locking look like this:

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY account_api AS

        ...

      PROCEDURE upd_account
          (p_acc_id     accounts.acc_id%type
            , p_acc_name   accounts.acc_name%type
            , p_acc_amount accounts.acc_amount%type
            , p_acc_date   accounts.acc_date%type
        )
      IS
      BEGIN
           UPDATE accounts
            set acc_name = p_acc_name
              , acc_amount = p_acc_amount
              , acc_date   = p_acc_date
           WHERE acc_id = p_acc_id;
       COMMIT;
      END;
      ...

      end account_api;
      /
And I need to use optimistic locking I do not know how to do it, and I can not find anywhere.

If you know how to do this, please write to me, or send me a link where it is explained


My english is bad, sorry if you don't understand me.

I do not understand what exactly you mean by "optimistic locking".
I do not understand what problem "optimistic locking" would solve for you?

I do not know what answer you desire?

Other sessions won't see DML changes made by UPDATE statement until after COMMIT has been executed.

In the assignment writes: I need to pay attention to the possibility of multi-user use and look for information about "pesimistic vs. optimistic locking", and "consistent read".
Maybe I did not understand what I should do

I do not know how to use "optimistic locking"

as explained here: http://www.blackwasp.co.uk/OptimisticLocking.aspx but this is not pl / sql

These are SQL Server concerns, in Oracle readers do not block readers and readers do not block writers so there is no need of such stuff; as John said "just let Uncle Oracle manage it".

All your conceptual issues are answered in (once again) Database Concepts.

  8          )
  9           IS
 10         BEGIN
 11             UPDATE accounts

 15  		  , acc_version = acc_version + 1
 16  	where acc_id   = p_acc_id
 17  	and  acc_version = p_acc_version;
 18  if(SQL%ROWCOUNT = 0)
 19  THEN
 20  RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR( -20001, 'Oops, the row has changed since you read it.' );
 21  END IF;
 22   END;
 23   end account_api;
 24  /

This is in this case here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41006941/implementing-optimistic-locking-in-oracle

No unless you read it before and pk can be updated but you don't need to read it before if you want to update, just update it.

Because account 1 with version CURRENT_TIMESTAMP does not exist.
Your code is most likely plain wrong.

That was then & this is NOW.

CURRENT_TIMESTAMP then does not equal CURRENT_TIMESTAMP now; since actual wall clock time has changed & progressed.

Read the previous posts.

You should have read it BEFORE using it in the code above all if it is so important for you (but I think this "lock_id" now "version" is useless).

You try to apply SQL Server to Oracle, you can't, this is pointless.
Porting code is NOT just stupidly convert each key word of one language into another one.
The transaction implementation is COMPLETELY different between SQL Server and Oracle, the architecture of the application MUST be changed.

You said that you understand optimistic and pessimistic locking. Are you sure? Consider this example:
You go to a website and find something you want to buy. You think for a while (an assumption here is that you do think) and then click "I buy it!" the website responds with "Too late sonny, someone else has bought it already". Do you think the website is using optimistic or pessimistic locking?

In that case, I think that the website uses optimistic locking.

I implemented an optimistic lock with the trigger
alter table accounts add TCN integer;
And UPDATE accounts set TCN = DBMS_UTILITY.GET_TIME;

And tcn can not be null
alter table accounts modify TCN not null;

I created trigger before update
SQL> create or replace trigger acc_preupdate
  2  before update on accounts
  3  for each row
  4  begin
  5  if(:NEW.TCN != :OLD.TCN+1) THEN
  6  RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20000, 'Concurrency Failure');
  7  end if;
  8  :NEW.TCN := DBMS_UTILITY.GET_TIME;
  9  END;
 10  /
And trigger before insert
SQL> create or replace trigger acc_preinsert
  2  before insert on accounts
  3  for each row
  4  begin
  5  :NEW.TCN := DBMS_UTILITY.GET_TIME;
  6  end;

Doesn't work and is plain stupid.

You don't read what is posted, you don't follow the advises, then there is nothing you can do.
I leave this topic.
Good luck.
