NAME

KinoSearch::Store::LockFactory - Create Locks.

DEPRECATED

The KinoSearch code base has been assimilated by the Apache Lucy project. The "KinoSearch" namespace has been deprecated, but development continues under our new name at our new home: http://lucy.apache.org/

SYNOPSIS

    use Sys::Hostname qw( hostname );
    my $hostname = hostname() or die "Can't get unique hostname";
    my $folder = KinoSearch::Store::FSFolder->new( 
        path => '/path/to/index', 
    );
    my $lock_factory = KinoSearch::Store::LockFactory->new(
        folder => $folder,
        host   => $hostname,
    );
    my $write_lock = $lock_factory->make_lock(
        name     => 'write',
        timeout  => 5000,
        interval => 100,
    );

DESCRIPTION

LockFactory is used to spin off interprocess mutex locks used by various index reading and writing components. The default implementation uses lockfiles, but LockFactory subclasses which are implemented using alternatives such as flock() are possible.

CONSTRUCTORS

new( [labeled params] )

    my $lock_factory = KinoSearch::Store::LockFactory->new(
        folder => $folder,      # required
        host   => $hostname,    # required
    );

• folder - A KinoSearch::Store::Folder.

• host - An identifier which should be unique per-machine.

METHODS

make_lock( [labeled params] )

Return a Lock object, which, once obtain() returns successfully, maintains an exclusive lock on a resource.

• name - A file-system-friendly id which identifies the resource to be locked.

• timeout - Time in milliseconds to keep retrying before abandoning the attempt to obtain() a lock.

• interval - Time in milliseconds between retries.

make_shared_lock( [labeled params] )

Return a Lock object for which shared() returns true, and which maintains a non-exclusive lock on a resource once obtain() returns success.

• name - A file-system-friendly id which identifies the resource to be locked.

• timeout - Time in milliseconds to keep retrying before abandoning the attempt to obtain() a lock.

• interval - Time in milliseconds between retries.

INHERITANCE

KinoSearch::Store::LockFactory isa KinoSearch::Object::Obj.
