flockfile isn't related to the old BSD flock. Instead, it's an MT primitive for standard IO streams. What you probably want in a modern program is lockf() or the fcntl() locking mechanisms. I don't know what happened to flock on OpenSolaris. It was (on old Solaris) in the UCB compatibility package. -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carls...@workingcode.com> _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list opensolaris-code@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
