Class to handle file locking.
Public interface
This class handles file locking by means of the fcntl SETLK function. Locking of files on NFS-mounted file systems works correctly as long as the NFS lockd and statd deamons are configured correctly. Otherwise lock requests may be granted incorrectly.
Acquiring a lock can be done for a read or a write lock. Multiple locks on a file can exist as long as they are all read locks. When a write lock is involved, no other lock can exist. It is possible to acquire a lock in 2 ways:
Make it possible to lock files in a standard way.

| casacore::FileLocker::FileLocker | ( | ) |
Default constructor creates an invalid fd.
Construct the FileLocker object for the given file descriptor.
This can be used to lock a segment of the given file. The segment is given by start and length. Length=0 means till the end of the file.
| casacore::FileLocker::~FileLocker | ( | ) |
Acquire a write or read lock.
nattempts defines how often it tries to acquire the lock. A zero value indicates an infinite number of times (i.e. wait until the lock is acquired). A positive value means it waits 1 second between each attempt.
Test if the file can be locked for read or write.
Optionally the PID of the process holding the lock is returned.
