note 79140 added to function.flock

I spent some time trying to find the correct way for having a non blocking lock. I've tested this in CLI and CGI PHP ver 5.2.4 <?php $i = 0; $fp = fopen('lockfile', 'w+'); while(!flock($fp, LOCK_EX | LOCK_NB)){ echo "\rSleep for: ".$i; sleep(1); $i++; } echo 'Lock aquired!'; sleep(60); fclose($fp); echo 'File closed!'; ?> Hope this demonstrates the function and syntax! ---- Server IP: 87.124.64.96 Probable Submitter: 84.92.224.92 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.flock.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/79140 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79140/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79140/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79140/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79140/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79140/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79140/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/79140 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/79140 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
