Here's my company's code:
# Open file in read-only exclusive mode, then immediately close; if anything
# has the file open, will fail
h = win32file.CreateFileW(
fname,
win32file.GENERIC_READ,
0, # exclusive access
None, # no security attrs
win32file.OPEN_EXISTING,
win32file.FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING,
None
)
h.Close()

it's about treating strings as sequences of characters. The fact that
characters are also strings is the reason we have problems, but characters
are strings for other good reasons." --Aahz
