Ara,

http://raa.ruby-lang.org/project/posixlock/

Just to confirm it compiles fine in Cygwin. Though I don't have an nfs mount available to test with.

  require 'posixlock'
  def lock_test
    pid = Process.pid
    42.times do
      open(__FILE__,'r+'){|f| f.posixlock(File::LOCK_EX) and puts "locked by <#{ pid }>"}
    end
  end
  fork ? lock_test && Process.wait : lock_test

thanks VERY much for checking that out!!! i'll start a list of known
successful compiles - can you give me anymore info? versions, win platform,
etc.?

It appears to work see trace below.

Test run on

ruby 1.9.0 (2004-08-02) [i386-cygwin]
WinXP Pro
Cygwin Dll version 1.5.10-3
