Edit Question
Title
Body
I tried using temp files: char *temp = tempnam(NULL, "myapp_"); printf("Tempname: %s", temp) // Prints /tmp/myapp_random while (1) { } But when I check /tmp (while the app is still running), the myapp_random is not there! As for using File Locks, I can't get a good grasp on it, I tried looking at <fcntl.h> but it seems to focus on locks in specified portions of a file. I just want to use the file entirely as a lock (which is why I prefer trying the temp file approach). Any ideas?
