Hi,
I am using OpenSSL for Windows from the command prompt.
every thing works fine.
I wish to know if a file lock is set when the output produced by OpenSSL is
written to a file.
For e.g.
openssl rand -out prn.txt -base64 86
Now OpenSSL creates a 'random' file by the name prn.txt.
My question is between opening and closing the file 'prn.txt'. Is the file
locked in between its opening and closing?
I don't want my program to read the file before the contents are written into
it. asking my program to go to sleep is also impractical sometimes due to
varied disk latency.
For e.g. if i open a file with notepad, it(the application) does not lock the
file. however if i open the same file using MS Word, it will set a lock on the
file preventing other applications from opening the file.
I would like to know if the -out option locks the file it is written into till
it is closed.
Thank you,
Sarad.
