Enum FileLocking 

pub enum FileLocking {
    Enabled,
    Disabled,
    BestEffort,
}

Policy for OS advisory file locking when opening a file for editing.

The default is FileLocking::Enabled. The HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING environment variable, when set to a recognized value, overrides the requested policy (matching the reference HDF5 library): FALSE/0/NO/OFF disable locking, BEST_EFFORT selects best-effort, and TRUE/1/YES/ON enable it.

Variants

Enabled

Acquire the lock, and fail the open with Error::Io if the filesystem does not support locking. A lock held by another process always fails the open with Error::FileLocked.

Disabled

Do not attempt to lock the file at all.

BestEffort

Attempt to lock, but proceed without a lock when the filesystem reports that locking is unavailable (e.g. some NFS / network mounts). A lock that is genuinely held by another process still fails the open. Mirrors the reference library’s BEST_EFFORT / ignore_disabled_locks.
