<h3>Summary</h3>
 
33
 
 
34
    <p>This module implements a generic locking API which can be used by any
 
35
    backend provider of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav.html">mod_dav</a></code>. It <em>requires</em> at least
 
36
    the service of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav.html">mod_dav</a></code>. But without a backend provider
 
37
    which makes use of it, it's useless and should not be loaded into the
 
38
    server. A sample backend module which actually utilizes
 
39
    <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav_lock.html">mod_dav_lock</a></code>, is <a href="http://subversion.tigris.org/">mod_dav_svn</a>, the subversion provider module.</p>
 
40
 
 
41
    <p>Note that <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav_fs.html">mod_dav_fs</a></code> does <em>not</em> need this
 
42
    generic locking module, because it uses it's own more specialized
 
43
    version.</p>
 
44
 
 
45
    <p>In order to make <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav_lock.html">mod_dav_lock</a></code> functional, you just have
 
46
    to specify the location of the lock database using the <code class="directive"><a href="#davgenericlockdb">DavGenericLockDB</a></code> directive described
 
47
    below.</p>

49
    <div class="note"><h3>Developer's Note</h3>
 
50
      <p>In order to retrieve the pointer to the locking provider function, you
 
51
      have to use the <code>ap_lookup_provider</code> API with the arguments
 
52
      <code>dav-lock</code>, <code>generic</code> and <code>0</code>.</p>

    <p>Use the <code class="directive">DavGenericLockDB</code> directive to specify
 
74
    the full path to the lock database, excluding an extension. If
 
75
    the path is not absolute, it will be taken relative to <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>. The implementation of

    <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_dav_lock.html">mod_dav_lock</a></code> uses a SDBM database to track user

    Apache is running.  For security reasons, you should create a
 
87
    directory for this purpose rather than changing the permissions on
 
88
    an existing directory.  In the above example, Apache will create
 
89
    files in the <code>var/</code> directory under the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code> with the base filename
