class TLockFile: public TObject


TLockFile

Lock an object using a file.
Constructor blocks until lock is obtained. Lock is released in the
destructor.

Use it in scope-blocks like:
{
TLockFile lock("path.to.lock.file");
 do something you need the lock for
} // lock is automatically released

Function documentation

TLockFile(const char* path, Int_t timeLimit = 0)

 Default constructor. Blocks until lock is obtained.
 If a lock exists that is older than the given time limit,
 the file is removed. If timeLimit <= 0, wait for ever.

~TLockFile()

 Destructor. Releases the lock.

Bool_t Lock(const char* path, Int_t timeLimit)

 Internal function that locks with the given path.

TLockFile(const TLockFile& )

TLockFile& operator=(const TLockFile& )
