# == What is Optimistic Locking
#
# Optimistic locking allows multiple users to access the same record for edits, and assumes a minimum of
# conflicts with the data. It does this by checking whether another process has made changes to a record since
# it was opened, an ActiveRecord::StaleObjectError is thrown if that has occurred and the update is ignored.
#
# Check out ActiveRecord::Locking::Pessimistic for an alternative.
#
# == Usage
#
# Active Records support optimistic locking if the field <tt>lock_version</tt> is present. Each update to the
# record increments the lock_version column and the locking facilities ensure that records instantiated twice
# will let the last one saved raise a StaleObjectError if the first was also updated. Example:
#
# p1 = Person.find(1)
# p2 = Person.find(1)
#
# p1.first_name = "Michael"
# p1.save
#
# p2.first_name = "should fail"
# p2.save # Raises a ActiveRecord::StaleObjectError
#
# You're then responsible for dealing with the conflict by rescuing the exception and either rolling back, merging,
# or otherwise apply the business logic needed to resolve the conflict.
#
# You must ensure that your database schema defaults the lock_version column to 0.
#
# This behavior can be turned off by setting <tt>ActiveRecord::Base.lock_optimistically = false</tt>.
# To override the name of the lock_version column, invoke the <tt>set_locking_column</tt> method.
# This method uses the same syntax as <tt>set_table_name</tt>
