[Tilesathome] Problem under windows again

perl -e 'use Config; print $Config{'d_flock'},"\n";'

deelkar informed me that the flock command, which is used to protect files from being uploaded by to simultanously running clients, might not work on Windows. Can you run

perl -e 'use Config; print $Config{'d_flock'},"\n";'

and see if it outputs a line on which is just

define

? If yes, it implements flock. It does not work on win 95/98 but it really should work on all later Win versions to the best of my knowledge.

thanks for testing,

spaetz
