note 94682 rejected from function.flock by danbrown

Note Submitter: shelby at coolpage dot com ---- I have filed a documentation bug report, and I think it needs to be linked here until this manual page is fixed: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50218 (has reference links not included below) Summary of issues detailed at above link: * LOCK_NB does work on Windows, only the wouldblock argument is not supported. * LOCK_NB option may be combined with the other LOCK_* options, which may not be combined with each other. * May be used with NFS because implementation uses fcntl. * Locking is mandatory in some cases in addition to Windows. * OS with Posix.1 compliant fcntl will release all a scripts' flock()s on a file, if that same script fclose() any file hande on that file. * Do not confuse the LOCK_* values (1,2,3,4) input to this function, with the LOCK_* OS values (1,2,4,8), even though their semantics are similar.
