in thread flock(), dodgy return?

Thank you radiantmatrix

I'm appalled at myself. Of all the.... The code was taken from a 'test' script I wrote in parallel with the existing code to make sure everything I wanted to do worked. The 'parent' script does use strict and Fcntl ':flock'.

Thank you again.

Out of interest, you started with "...first thing I note..." do I have any other lurkers?

    I suspect he means he didn't look any further, since it's a big chunk of code and nothing obvious stood out.

    Update: This is not a complaint. We'd be happy to look further into it if you are still having problems.

      Crikey, don't misunderstand me. I didn't think it was a complaint. I'm very grateful for all the comments and advice this thread has generated.

      Fair comment. It had got to the point where I was doubting myself so much I figured I'd include the whole lot just in case it was something stupid......and whaddya know :/
