\class QtLockedFile
\brief The QtLockedFile class extends QFile with advisory locking functions.
A file may be locked in read or write mode. Multiple instances of
\e QtLockedFile, created in multiple processes running on the same
machine, may have a file locked in read mode. Exactly one instance
may have it locked in write mode. A read and a write lock cannot
exist simultaneously on the same file.
The file locks are advisory. This means that nothing prevents
another process from manipulating a locked file using QFile or
file system functions offered by the OS. Serialization is only
guaranteed if all processes that access the file use
QtLockedFile. Also, while holding a lock on a file, a process
must not open the same file again (through any API), or locks
can be unexpectedly lost.
The lock provided by an instance of \e QtLockedFile is released
whenever the program terminates. This is true even when the
program crashes and no destructors are called.
*/
/*! \enum QtLockedFile::LockMode
This enum describes the available lock modes.
\value ReadLock A read lock.
\value WriteLock A write lock.
\value NoLock Neither a read lock nor a write lock.

be aquired.

is first released and then a new lock is obtained.
