NAME
    Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore - Easy to use semaphores

SYNOPSIS
        use Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore;
        my $sem = Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore->new( key => "abc" );

        $sem->semlock();
          # ... critical section
        $sem->semunlock();

        $sem->semset( uid  => (getpwnam("hugo"))[2],
                      gid  => 102,
                      mode => 0644
                    );

DESCRIPTION
    Log::Log4perl::Util::Semaphore provides the synchronisation mechanism for the Synchronized.pm
    appender in Log4perl, but can be used independently of Log4perl.

    As a convenience, the "uid" field accepts user names as well, which it translates into the
    corresponding uid by running "getpwnam".
