Class Mutex

All Implemented Interfaces:
AutoCloseable
public final class Mutex extends Object implements AutoCloseable
ECMWF Product Data Store (OpenECPDS) Project The Mutex class represents a mutual exclusion lock for a specific key. It has a reference to a Synchronized object, which is used to manage locks on a per-key basis. The lock() method of the Mutex object acquires the lock for the associated key by calling the lock() method of the underlying Synchronized object. The close() method of the Mutex object releases the lock for the associated key by calling the free() method of the underlying Synchronized object. This class provides a way to synchronize access to a shared resource on a per-key basis, which can help prevent data corruption and other synchronization-related problems. *
