+ help
|
|
|
+ The lockfile package exports a LockFile class which provides a
|
|
|
+ simple API for locking files. Unlike the Windows
|
|
|
+ msvcrt.locking function, the fcntl.lockf and flock functions,
|
|
|
+ and the deprecated posixfile module, the API is identical
|
|
|
+ across both Unix (including Linux and Mac) and Windows
|
|
|
+ platforms.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The lock mechanism relies on the atomic nature of the link
|
|
|
+ (on Unix) and mkdir (on Windows) system calls. An
|
|
|
+ implementation based on SQLite is also provided, more as a
|
|
|
+ demonstration of the possibilities it provides than as
|
|
|
+ production-quality code.
