NEWS for flufl.lock

2.2 (2012-01-19)

  • Support Python 3 without the use of 2to3.
  • Make the documentation clear that the flufl.test.subproc functions are not part of the public API. (LP: #838338)
  • Fix claim file format in take_possession(). (LP: #872096)
  • Provide a new API for dealing with possible additional unexpected errnos while trying to read the lock file. These can happen in some NFS environments. If you want to retry the read, set the lock file’s retry_errnos property to a sequence of errnos. If one of those errnos occurs, the read is unconditionally (and infinitely) retried. retry_errnos is a property which must be set to a sequence; it has a getter and a deleter too. (LP: #882261)
