NAME
Log::Dispatch::FileRotate::Flock - File Locking Functions for Log::Dispatch::FileRotate
VERSION
version 1.36
SYNOPSIS
Internal Use Only!
DESCRIPTION
Internal Use Only!
METHODS
safe_flock($filehandle, $flags): boolean
This is a wrapper around
"flock()" that handles things such as interruption of
the call by a signal automatically.
flopen($path): ($filehandle, $inode)
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.
