note 129025 added to function.flock

Important if using this to lock a class into a single instance (long duration processes). The file handle needs to be a class wide variable like $this->singleinstance. Not local to the __construct function like $localvariable. The reason is the local variable is gone after __construct is called so the lock lasts for only millisconds and not for the full duration of class running in memory. ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 45.91.157.134 (proxied: 96.73.43.1) ---- Manual Page -- https://php.net/manual/en/function.flock.php Edit -- https://main.php.net/note/edit/129025 Del: integrated -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129025/integrated Del: useless -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129025/useless Del: bad code -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129025/bad+code Del: spam -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129025/spam Del: non-english -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129025/non-english Del: in docs -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129025/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129025 Reject -- https://main.php.net/note/reject/129025 Search -- https://main.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
