Taking Advantage of File Coordination

The next version of the Foundation framework will include file coordination, a new mechanism that allows a process to interoperate well with other processes that are accessing the same files. It even lets your application play an active role in file operations done by other processes. We'll talk about what it is and how you use it. It's an important API to some of the other new features you'll learn about at this year's WWDC so we'll also talk about how parts of Mac OS X and iOS are already using it.
