JTable::checkOut
Method to check a row out if the necessary properties/fields exist. To prevent race conditions while editing rows in a database, a row can be checked out if the fields 'checked_out' and 'checked_out_time' are available.
While a row is checked out, any attempt to store the row by a user other than the one who checked the row out should be held until the row is checked in again.
