As far as I know on Unix there is only cooperative locking, meaning you
can lock a file but other processes have to explicitly check whether that
lock is set and handle that.

Is it possible to lock a file with Boost.Filesystem to prevent its deletion, writing or reading?
Against whom/what do you want to lock the file? On which platform?
Against other processes will suffice I guess. On Windows platform, however using Boost.Filesystem I hope for (at least some) platform independence.
