_lock_file

Locks a FILE object to ensure consistency for threads accessing the FILE object concurrently.

void _lock_file(
   FILE* file
);

Parameters

  • file
    File handle.

Remarks

The _lock_file function locks the FILE object specified by file. The underlying file is not locked by _lock_file. Use _unlock_file to release the lock on the file. Calls to _lock_file and _unlock_file must be matched in a thread.

Requirements

Routine

Required header

Example

// crt_lock_file.c
// This example creates multiple threads that write to standard output
// concurrently, first with _file_lock, then without.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <process.h>// _beginthread
#include <windows.h>// HANDLE
