SUMMARY: NESTED | FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD | DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD |
Interface for text related objects which may be used in the multi-threaded context and thus must provide a way to prevent concurrent access and manipulation.
In order to reduce the probability of dead locks clients should synchronize their access to these objects by using the provided lock object rather than the object itself.
Managing objects can use the setLockObject
method in order to
synchronize whole sets of objects.
