Watch out when you use fileinode() to get a unique semaphore key (as suggested in some comment on this or a related function) in conjunction with version control software: It seems, for example, SVN will change the inode. Using such a file will leave you with your mutex not working reliably and your system's semaphore pool being filled until further attempts to get a semaphore will fail. Use ipcs and ipcrm commands from linux-util-ng (on most distros probably) to examine/fix related problems. ---- Server IP: 212.124.37.9 Probable Submitter: 92.224.126.245 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sem-get.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/105537 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105537/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105537/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105537/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105537/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105537/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105537/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105537 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/105537 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
