Package edu.emory.mathcs.util.concurrent.locks

Interface Summary
Condition Condition factors out the Object monitor methods (wait, notify and notifyAll) into distinct objects to give the effect of having multiple wait-sets per object, by combining them with the use of arbitrary Lock implementations.
Lock Lock implementations provide more extensive locking operations than can be obtained using synchronized methods and statements.
ReadWriteLock A ReadWriteLock maintains a pair of associated locks, one for read-only operations and one for writing.
 

Class Summary
ReentrantLock A reentrant mutual exclusion Lock with the same basic behavior and semantics as the implicit monitor lock accessed using synchronized methods and statements, but with extended capabilities.
ReentrantReadWriteLock An implementation of ReadWriteLock supporting similar semantics to ReentrantLock.
