public interface ISynchronizable
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.
-
Since:
- 3.0
setLockObject
void setLockObject(
Object lockObject)
- Sets the lock object for this object. If the lock object is not
null
subsequent calls to specified methods of this object
are synchronized on this lock object. Which methods are synchronized is
specified by the implementer.
You should not override an existing lock object unless you own
that lock object yourself. Use the existing lock object instead.

Parameters:
-
lockObject
- the lock object. May be null
.
getLockObject
Object getLockObject()
- Returns the lock object or
null
if there is none. Clients
should use the lock object in order to synchronize concurrent access to
the implementer.

Returns:
- the lock object or
null
