      I am opening a file for writing using
      QFile file(FILEPATH)
      file.open(QFile.ReadWrite)

      The file operation is working fine. But, it does not disallow user to delete the file while writing operation is in progress.

      I need to make sure if file is open for writing by my program then no user can manually delete it or cannot delete the directory where the gile is present.
      This task is being performed in linux qt 4.8
