Log::Dispatch::FileRotate::Flock - File Locking Functions for Log::Dispatch::FileRotate
version 1.38
Internal Use Only!
This is a wrapper around flock() that handles things such as interruption of the call by a signal automatically.
flock()
This function is similar to BSD's flopen() function. It opens a file, obtiains an exclusive lock on it using flock(), and handles a bunch of race conditions that can happen. It returns the opened filehandle and the inode of the file on success, nothing on failure.
flopen()
