File locking via POSIX advisory record locks (fork of file-lock)
This crate provides the facility to lock and unlock a file following the advisory record lock scheme as specified by UNIX IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (POSIX.1) via fcntl().
This crate currently supports Linux and FreeBSD.
use file_lock::FileLock;
use std::io::prelude::*;
use std::io::Result;
fn main() -> Result<()> {
let filelock = FileLock::new("myfile.txt")
.writeable(true)
.blocking(true)
.lock()?;
filelock.file.write_all(b"Hello, World!")?;
// Manually unlocking is optional as we unlock on Drop
filelock.unlock();
