// * Within a process, locking the same file (by the same or new handle)
// will fail.
// POSIX-specific semantics:
// * Locks are advisory only.
// * Within a process, locking the same file (by the same or new handle)
// will succeed.
// * Closing any descriptor on a given file releases the lock.

// Microsoft Windows deletes a file only when the last handle to the
// underlying kernel object is closed when the DeleteFile disposition has been
// set by any handle holder. This disposition is be set by:
// - Calling the Win32 DeleteFile function with the path to a file.
// - Opening/creating a file with FLAG_DELETE_ON_CLOSE.
// - Opening/creating a file with FLAG_CAN_DELETE_ON_CLOSE and subsequently
// calling DeleteOnClose(true).
//
// In all cases, all pre-existing handles to the file must have been opened
// with FLAG_SHARE_DELETE.
//
// So:
// - Use FLAG_SHARE_DELETE when creating/opening a file to allow another
// entity on the system to cause it to be deleted when it is closed. (Note:
// another entity can delete the file the moment after it is closed, so not
// using this permission doesn't provide any protections.)
// - Use FLAG_DELETE_ON_CLOSE for any file that is to be deleted after use.
// The OS will ensure it is deleted even in the face of process termination.
// - Use FLAG_CAN_DELETE_ON_CLOSE in conjunction with DeleteOnClose() to alter
// the DeleteFile disposition on an open handle. This fine-grained control
// allows for marking a file for deletion during processing so that it is
// deleted in the event of untimely process termination, and then clearing
// this state once the file is suitable for persistence.
