Hello Everyone,

I am attempting to lock a file using FLOCK. I understand the FLOCK is an
advisory lock and that it does not prevent any other process/program
from "clobbering" the file even when the lock in on the file.

Is there anything I should look into to apply a lock on a file so that
it does not get written to when the lock is in place?

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
I'm not sure what you are trying to do, but you might want to look at using a transactional database like mysql or postgresql.
