Detailed Description

A wrapper around the UNIX file locking mechanism.

Allows us to "adapt" the UNIX file locking mechanisms to work with all of our Guard stuff...

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ACE_File_Lock::ACE_File_Lock ( ACE_HANDLE  handle = ACE_INVALID_HANDLE,
bool  unlink_in_destructor = true 
)

Set the <handle_> of the File_Lock to handle. Note that this constructor assumes ownership of the handle and will close it down in <remove>. If you want the handle to stay open when <remove> is called make sure to call <dup> on the handle. If you don't want the file unlinked in the destructor pass a zero value for <unlink_in_destructor>.

ACE_File_Lock::ACE_File_Lock ( const ACE_TCHAR filename,
int  flags,
mode_t  mode = 0,
bool  unlink_in_destructor = true 
)

Open the filename with flags and mode and set the result to <handle_>. If you don't want the file unlinked in the destructor pass a false value for unlink_in_destructor.

ACE_File_Lock::~ACE_File_Lock ( void  )

Remove a File lock by releasing it and closing down the <handle_>.

ACE_File_Lock::ACE_File_Lock ( const ACE_File_Lock )

Member Function Documentation

int ACE_File_Lock::acquire ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Note, for interface uniformity with other synchronization wrappers we include the acquire() method. This is implemented as a write-lock to be on the safe-side...

int ACE_File_Lock::acquire_read ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Acquire a read lock, but block if a writer hold the lock. Returns -1 on failure. If we "failed" because someone else already had the lock, errno is set to EBUSY.

int ACE_File_Lock::acquire_write ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Acquire a write lock, but block if any readers or a writer hold the lock.

void ACE_File_Lock::dump ( void  ) const

Dump state of the object.

ACE_HANDLE ACE_File_Lock::get_handle ( void  ) const
inline

Get underlying ACE_HANDLE for the file.

int ACE_File_Lock::open ( const ACE_TCHAR filename,
int  flags,
mode_t  mode = 0 
)

Open the filename with flags and mode and set the result to <handle_>.

void ACE_File_Lock::operator= ( const ACE_File_Lock )
private
int ACE_File_Lock::release ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Unlock a readers/writer lock.

int ACE_File_Lock::remove ( bool  unlink_file = true)
inline

Remove a File lock by releasing it and closing down the <handle_>. If unlink_file is true then we unlink the file.

void ACE_File_Lock::set_handle ( ACE_HANDLE  h)
inline

Set underlying ACE_HANDLE. Note that this method assumes ownership of the handle and will close it down in <remove>. If you want the handle to stay open when <remove> is called make sure to call <dup> on the handle before closing it. You are responsible for the closing the existing handle before overwriting it.

int ACE_File_Lock::tryacquire ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Note, for interface uniformity with other synchronization wrappers we include the <tryacquire> method. This is implemented as a write-lock to be on the safe-side... Returns -1 on failure. If we "failed" because someone else already had the lock, errno is set to EBUSY.

int ACE_File_Lock::tryacquire_read ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Conditionally acquire a read lock (i.e., won't block). Returns -1 on failure. If we "failed" because someone else already had the lock, errno is set to EBUSY.

int ACE_File_Lock::tryacquire_write ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Conditionally acquire a write lock (i.e., won't block). Returns -1 on failure. If we "failed" because someone else already had the lock, errno is set to EBUSY.

int ACE_File_Lock::tryacquire_write_upgrade ( short  whence = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  start = 0,
ACE_OFF_T  len = 1 
)
inline

Conditionally upgrade to a write lock (i.e., won't block). Returns -1 on failure. If we "failed" because someone else already had the lock, errno is set to EBUSY.

Member Data Documentation

ACE_File_Lock::ACE_ALLOC_HOOK_DECLARE

Declare the dynamic allocation hooks.

ACE_OS::ace_flock_t ACE_File_Lock::lock_
protected

Locking structure for OS record locks.

bool ACE_File_Lock::removed_
protected

Keeps track of whether <remove> has been called yet to avoid multiple <remove> calls, e.g., explicitly and implicitly in the destructor. This flag isn't protected by a lock, so make sure that you don't have multiple threads simultaneously calling <remove> on the same object, which is a bad idea anyway...

bool const ACE_File_Lock::unlink_in_destructor_
protected

Keeps track of whether to unlink the underlying file in the destructor.
