Hello All, I've a configuration.ini file. This particular can be accessed by several threads of my application. Each thread can read/write configuration parameters from/to the configuration.ini file. I am using threading (Rlock) to lock the resource (configuration.ini file) while accessing it from any thread. I use the file available at http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/configobj.html for read/write.
I did the following in one of my files: import threading class Synchronization: def __init__(self): self.mutex = threading.RLock() Now this I can create instances of the class Synchronization and use acquire/release to work on the shared resource. But every thread would need to import this class and hence each thread would create a separate instance of the class. This means several lock variables. But I think we need a global lock flag that is accessible across all the threads. How do i do this? Please let me know ASAP. Thanks In Advance, Tarun
