      • lock

        public void lock()
        Acquires the read lock.

        Acquires the read lock if the write lock is not held by another thread and returns immediately.

        If the write lock is held by another thread then the current thread becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and lies dormant until the read lock has been acquired.

        Specified by:
        lock in interface Lock
      • lockInterruptibly

        public void lockInterruptibly()
                               throws InterruptedException
        Acquires the read lock unless the current thread is interrupted.

        Acquires the read lock if the write lock is not held by another thread and returns immediately.

        If the write lock is held by another thread then the current thread becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and lies dormant until one of two things happens:

        • The read lock is acquired by the current thread; or
        • Some other thread interrupts the current thread.

        If the current thread:

        • has its interrupted status set on entry to this method; or
        • is interrupted while acquiring the read lock,

        then InterruptedException is thrown and the current thread's interrupted status is cleared.

        In this implementation, as this method is an explicit interruption point, preference is given to responding to the interrupt over normal or reentrant acquisition of the lock.

        Specified by:
        lockInterruptibly in interface Lock
        Throws:
        InterruptedException - if the current thread is interrupted
      • tryLock

        public boolean tryLock()
        Acquires the read lock only if the write lock is not held by another thread at the time of invocation.

        Acquires the read lock if the write lock is not held by another thread and returns immediately with the value true.

        If the write lock is held by another thread then this method will return immediately with the value false.

        Specified by:
        tryLock in interface Lock
        Returns:
        true if the read lock was acquired
      • tryLock

        public boolean tryLock​(long timeout,
                               TimeUnit unit)
                        throws InterruptedException
        Acquires the read lock if the write lock is not held by another thread within the given waiting time and the current thread has not been interrupted.

        Acquires the read lock if the write lock is not held by another thread and returns immediately with the value true.

        If the write lock is held by another thread then the current thread becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and lies dormant until one of three things happens:

        • The read lock is acquired by the current thread; or
        • Some other thread interrupts the current thread; or
        • The specified waiting time elapses.

        If the read lock is acquired then the value true is returned.

        If the current thread:

        • has its interrupted status set on entry to this method; or
        • is interrupted while acquiring the read lock,
        then InterruptedException is thrown and the current thread's interrupted status is cleared.

        If the specified waiting time elapses then the value false is returned. If the time is less than or equal to zero, the method will not wait at all.

        In this implementation, as this method is an explicit interruption point, preference is given to responding to the interrupt over normal or reentrant acquisition of the lock, and over reporting the elapse of the waiting time.

        Specified by:
        tryLock in interface Lock
        Parameters:
        timeout - the time to wait for the read lock
        unit - the time unit of the timeout argument
        Returns:
        true if the read lock was acquired
        Throws:
        InterruptedException - if the current thread is interrupted
        NullPointerException - if the time unit is null
      • unlock

        public void unlock()
        Attempts to release this lock.

        If the number of readers is now zero then the lock is made available for write lock attempts. If the current thread does not hold this lock then IllegalMonitorStateException is thrown.

        Specified by:
        unlock in interface Lock
        Throws:
        IllegalMonitorStateException - if the current thread does not hold this lock
      • toString

        public String toString()
        Returns a string identifying this lock, as well as its lock state. The state, in brackets, includes the String "Read locks =" followed by the number of held read locks.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Object
        Returns:
        a string identifying this lock, as well as its lock state
