note 73035 added to function.flock

In response to korostel: Using files for things like counters is a very bad idea...especially when you're requiring scripts to wait until the file is available before accessing the file. You should use a database like MySQL or PostgreSQL since they are much better performance-wise (especially MySQL). If you need the data to be in a file for some reason you can always use a cron job that reads the current data from your database and then writes it to the file. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 68.63.188.52 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.flock.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/73035 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73035/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73035/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73035/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73035/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73035/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73035/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73035 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/73035 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
