dreameo Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 https://pastebin.com/B7GexCCy Offers: - Thread Safe (same object can be used by multiple threads) - Throws lock exception if two or more distinct objects pointing to the same file try to acquire a lock (locks acquired by performing read/write) (One minor thing: Assumes EOF contains new line - you can put some hack to fix it but I didn't bother) Notes (from java lib): This file-locking API is intended to map directly to the native locking facility of the underlying operating system. Thus the locks held on a file should be visible to all programs that have access to the file, regardless of the language in which those programs are written. Whether or not a lock actually prevents another program from accessing the content of the locked region is system-dependent and therefore unspecified. The native file-locking facilities of some systems are merely advisory, meaning that programs must cooperatively observe a known locking protocol in order to guarantee data integrity. On other systems native file locks are mandatory, meaning that if one program locks a region of a file then other programs are actually prevented from accessing that region in a way that would violate the lock. On yet other systems, whether native file locks are advisory or mandatory is configurable on a per-file basis. To ensure consistent and correct behavior across platforms, it is strongly recommended that the locks provided by this API be used as if they were advisory locks. 2
