gbxserialacfr::lockfile::LockFile Class Reference

#include <lockfile.h>

List of all members.

Detailed Description

Creates a lock-file (in /var/lock) which can be used to prevent multiple access to a unique resource (eg "/dev/xxx"). Stores the PID of the locking process (lockPid), so it can check for stale lock-files.

Throws LockFileException's on errors (including 'device locked').

The destructor removes the lock-file (guarantees that no exceptions are thrown).
