lock config::IniFile

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Does anyone know how to (or has done) file locking or flock a process generated using the Config::IniFile modual?

my $cfgPass = new Config::IniFiles( -file => "/TARS/ESS/JABIL_ESS.ini"
+ );
my $lock = new File::Flock '$cfgPass' || die "problem opening $cfgPass
+\n";

The single quotes prevent variable interpolation so you are trying to lock a file called `$cfgpass` in the current directory. Try using double quotes or no quotes.	[reply] [d/l]
