These are common return values; see Return Values (NDK: Connection, Message, and NCP Extensions) for more information.
A logical record is simply a name (a string) registered with the NetWare server. The name (as with a semaphore) can then be locked or unlocked by applications and can be used as an inter-application locking mechanism.
NOTE:Locking or unlocking a logical record does not physically lock or unlock those resources associated with the logical record; only the applications using the record know about such an association.
To avoid deadlock, a workstation is required to request those files it needs to lock; it does so by making an entry into the File Log Table at the NetWare server. Once the log table is complete, the application can then lock those files. The locking works only if all files in the table are available.
NWReleaseLogicalRecordSet is ignored if the requesting workstation or process does not have locked logical records.
