Log::Dispatch::FileRotate::Flock(3p)

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.
