Overview

This class provides a simple API for managing a lock file whose contents are an (optional) String. In addition to querying the basic state (#locked?) of the lock, managing the lock (#lock, #unlock), the contents can be retrieved at any time while the lock is held (#lock_data). This can be used to store pids, messages, etc.
