Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2002-05-28 Severity: wishlist * Package name : libfile-lock-perl Version : 0.9 Upstream Author : Jarkko Hietaniemi and Kenneth Albanowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-module/File/File-Lock-0.9.tar.gz * License : "As Perl" Description : File locking with Perl using flock, lockf and fcntl
File::Lock provides functions to perform locking using flock, lockf and fcntl. This last is both necessary in order to safely lock mailboxes, Exim mail spools etc. and difficult to do in a portable way with Perl. This module should make it easy. At present, an OO wrapper is provided only for fcntl locking. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux hoiho 2.2.19hoiho-1 #1 Mon May 6 13:46:05 NZST 2002 i686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
