[Twisted-Python] Twisted and symlink
Hello everyone, i was trying to port Python, Twisted, etc.. to VxWorks. My Problem now is: twisted/python/lockfile.py (import symlink). VxWorks doenst support symlink. My Questions are: * For what is the symlink used? * Can i disable them? * Is there an old version without symlink? Is there any other alternative or solution for the symlink? Best regards.

Symlinks are used for lockfiles.
* Can i disable them?
Well, maybe. Is there some way to create an atomic filesystem lock on VxWorks?
* Is there an old version without symlink?
Probably not a reasonable version, no. Is there any other alternative or solution for the symlink?
Sure. That module implements an alternative for Windows. I would guess that you would need one for VxWorks as well. hth lvh
