Uses of Package
java.util.concurrent.locks

Packages that use java.util.concurrent.locks
java.util.concurrent.locks Interfaces and classes providing a framework for locking and waiting for conditions that is distinct from built-in synchronization and monitors. 
 

Classes in java.util.concurrent.locks used by java.util.concurrent.locks
AbstractOwnableSynchronizer
          A synchronizer that may be exclusively owned by a thread.
AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer.ConditionObject
          Condition implementation for a AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer serving as the basis of a Lock implementation.
AbstractQueuedSynchronizer.ConditionObject
          Condition implementation for a AbstractQueuedSynchronizer serving as the basis of a Lock implementation.
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.
ReentrantReadWriteLock
          An implementation of ReadWriteLock supporting similar semantics to ReentrantLock.
ReentrantReadWriteLock.ReadLock
          The lock returned by method ReentrantReadWriteLock.readLock().
ReentrantReadWriteLock.WriteLock
          The lock returned by method ReentrantReadWriteLock.writeLock().
