fslock

API to use files as a lock. Supports non-std crates by disabling feature std.

Types

Currently, only one type is provided: [LockFile]. It does not destroy the file after closed and behaviour on locking different file handles owned by the same process is different between Unix and Windows. # Example:

Example

use fslock::LockFile;
fn main() -> Result<(), fslock::Error> {

    let mut file = LockFile::open("mylock")?;
    file.lock()?;
    do_stuff();
    file.unlock()?;

    Ok(())
}
