Lock document while performing OCR

SELECTED ANSWER

replied on June 9, 2016

You should lock the document to avoid having partial changes saved to the document if the user locks a document while it is being OCR'd. Locking also improves indexing performance because the search engine is only notified once to index the document (when it is unlocked) instead of after each individual change.

Thank you for your response...follow-up questions...

Does the using statement lock the document or do I still have to lock it inside the using?

using (var document = Document.GetDocumentInfo(documentId, session))
{
    document.Lock();   // Is this redundant?

    // Do work
}

You need to make the Lock() call, GetDocumentInfo doesn't lock it. It will be unlocked automatically (by IDisposable) when it exits the using block.
