3 | 3 | # DirInit::Manager handles directory initialization and clean-up when |
|
4 | 4 | # there are many concurrent processes that wants to modify the |
|
5 | 5 | # directory in the same way. |

6 | 6 | # |
|
7 | 7 | # An example usage is when each process wants to copy some temporary |
|
8 | 8 | # files to the directory and delete these files after finishing its |
|
9 | 9 | # job. Problems may occur when the first process delete the files |
|
10 | 10 | # while the second process is still using the files. |

12 | 12 | # This library maintain a reference counter on the processes using the |
|
13 | 13 | # directory. It locks the dir to manage critical section when |
|
14 | 14 | # updating the reference counter. |

|
18 | + # dman = DirInit::Manager.new("mydir") | |
|
19 | + # | |
|
20 | + # dman.setup do | |
|
21 | + # # do some initialization | |

|
30 | + # DirInit::Manager ensures that the block passed to <tt>setup</tt> | |
|
31 | + # only runs once by the first process in the concurrent dir usage and | |
|
32 | + # block passed to <tt>teardown</tt> runs once by the last process in | |
