Also, does file_get_contents lock files? What would happen if a
script tried to lock a file with an exclusive lock (LOCK_EX) while
another instance of the script was reading it? Would the flock
operation block until it had exclusive access? Would the script doing
the reading suddenly stop? Would the script doing the reading
suddenly read different data?
Thanks!
