* Description: named semaphores for interprocess
|
|
* synchronization
|
|
*
|
|
* Unrelated processes obtain access to a shared semaphore
|
|
* by specifying its name.
|
|
*
|
|
* Our goal is to support named semaphores on at least
|
|
* Unix and Win32 platforms. The implementation will use
|
|
* one of the three native semaphore APIs: POSIX, System V,
|
|
* and Win32.
|
|
*
|
|
* Because POSIX named semaphores have kernel persistence,
|
|
* we are forced to have a delete function in this API.
