<span class="versionmodified">Deprecated since version 1.5: </span>The locking operation that this module provides is done better and more portably
by the <a class="reference internal" href="fcntl.html#fcntl.lockf" title="fcntl.lockf"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">fcntl.lockf()</span></tt></a> call.</p>
<p id="index-1">This module implements some additional functionality over the built-in file
objects.  In particular, it implements file locking, control over the file
flags, and an easy interface to duplicate the file object. The module defines a
new file object, the posixfile object.  It has all the standard file object
methods and adds the methods described below.  This module only works for
certain flavors of Unix, since it uses <a class="reference internal" href="fcntl.html#fcntl.fcntl" title="fcntl.fcntl"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">fcntl.fcntl()</span></tt></a> for file locking.</p>
<p>To instantiate a posixfile object, use the <a class="reference internal" href="#posixfile.open" title="posixfile.open"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">posixfile.open()</span></tt></a> function.  The
resulting object looks and feels roughly the same as a standard file object.</p>
