Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore - Easy to use semaphores
use Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore; my $sem = Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore->new( key => "abc" ); $sem->semlock(); # ... critical section $sem->semunlock(); $sem->semset( uid => (getpwnam("hugo"))[2], gid => 102, mode => 0644 );
Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore provides the synchronisation mechanism for the Synchronized.pm appender in Log4perl, but can be used independently of Log4perl.
As a convenience, the uid field accepts user names as well, which it translates into the corresponding uid by running getpwnam.
