Revision history for Perl extension File::FcntlLock

0.12 Thu Oct 8 2009

• Stupid bug in Makefile removed that assumed a certain layout of the flock structure - thanks to Glenn Herteg for spotting this

0.11 Wed Oct 7 2009

• Module did use only 32-bit flock structure, making it impossible to obtain locks on parts of files above 4 GB. Now it also should work for large files.
  • Mistakes in documentation removed as pointed out by FANY and Glenn Herteg.
