Revision history for Perl extension IO::LockedFile.
0.21 Thu May 16 09:40:16 CEST 2002
- Thanks to Ho Ming Shun who found and patched a bug in the open
method. The bug occured when numeric mode was used, the opened
file would be locked exclusively always.
- The test.pl was re-written to add some more tests.

- Many changes due to the great contribution of Rob Napier:
The class became abstract where classes in the directory
LockedFile implements it. This way new schemes other then
Flock can be introduced. The interface was extended as a
result of that, and the options hash was introduced. Among
the new features: opening a file that is not yet locked,
blocking & unblocking locks, checking if the file is opened
to write and supplying this information to the lock method
(so for example shared lock can be used on files that are
read), print method, and truncate method.
