A {@code ReentrantLock} is owned by the thread last * successfully locking, but not yet unlocking it. A thread invoking * {@code lock} will return, successfully acquiring the lock, when * the lock is not owned by another thread. The method will return * immediately if the current thread already owns the lock. This can * be checked using methods {@link #isHeldByCurrentThread}, and {@link * #getHoldCount}. * *
The constructor for this class accepts an optional * fairness parameter. When set {@code true}, under * contention, locks favor granting access to the longest-waiting * thread. Otherwise this lock does not guarantee any particular * access order. Programs using fair locks accessed by many threads * may display lower overall throughput (i.e., are slower; often much * slower) than those using the default setting, but have smaller * variances in times to obtain locks and guarantee lack of * starvation. Note however, that fairness of locks does not guarantee * fairness of thread scheduling. Thus, one of many threads using a * fair lock may obtain it multiple times in succession while other * active threads are not progressing and not currently holding the * lock. * Also note that the untimed {@link #tryLock() tryLock} method does not * honor the fairness setting. It will succeed if the lock * is available even if other threads are waiting. * *
It is recommended practice to always immediately * follow a call to {@code lock} with a {@code try} block, most * typically in a before/after construction such as: * *
* class X {
* private final ReentrantLock lock = new ReentrantLock();
* // ...
*
* public void m() {
* lock.lock(); // block until condition holds
* try {
* // ... method body
* } finally {
* lock.unlock()
* }
* }
* }
*
*
* In addition to implementing the {@link Lock} interface, this * class defines methods {@code isLocked} and * {@code getLockQueueLength}, as well as some associated * {@code protected} access methods that may be useful for * instrumentation and monitoring. * *
Serialization of this class behaves in the same way as built-in * locks: a deserialized lock is in the unlocked state, regardless of * its state when serialized. * *
This lock supports a maximum of 2147483647 recursive locks by * the same thread.
