Isolation level: repeatable read vs read stability.
479456Oct 29 2010 — edited Oct 29 2010I was going through the following link [http://www.developer.com/print.php/3706251] about database isolation levels. There was a statement:
In Read Stability, only rows that are retrieved or modified are locked, whereas in Repeatable Read, all rows that are being referenced are locked.
What is meant by "all rows that are being referenced".
According to my understanding in case of repeatable read, the table is locked. Is this understanding correct?
