Serializing requests?

[Mike Meyer]

I'm working on a module that I've finally decided can be characterized
as wanting to control access to something that - unlike most of the
things apache lets you access is - is only serially reusable.

I was wondering if there was something in Apache - or apr - that might
help with coordinating access to said recourse between different
invocations of the handler, or should I just use the standard unix
techniques as I would for CGI/etc?

 Thanks,
 mike

You're looking for an APR global mutex.

Also ideally the modules-dev mailinglist, for future reference.
