-Interfaces and classes providing a framework for locking and waiting
-for conditions that is distinct from built-in synchronization and
-monitors. The framework permits much greater flexibility in the use of
-locks and conditions, at the expense of more awkward syntax.
-
-<p> The {@link java.util.concurrent.locks.Lock} interface supports
-locking disciplines that differ in semantics (reentrant, fair, etc),
-and that can be used in non-block-structured contexts including
-hand-over-hand and lock reordering algorithms. The main implementation
-is {@link java.util.concurrent.locks.ReentrantLock}.
-
-<p> The {@link java.util.concurrent.locks.ReadWriteLock} interface
-similarly defines locks that may be shared among readers but are
-exclusive to writers. Only a single implementation, {@link
-java.util.concurrent.locks.ReentrantReadWriteLock}, is provided, since
-it covers most standard usage contexts. But programmers may create
-their own implementations to cover nonstandard requirements.
-
-<p> The {@link java.util.concurrent.locks.Condition} interface
-describes condition variables that may be associated with Locks.
-These are similar in usage to the implicit monitors accessed using
-<tt>Object.wait</tt>, but offer extended capabilities. In particular,
-multiple <tt>Condition</tt> objects may be associated with a single
-<tt>Lock</tt>. To avoid compatibility issues, the names of
-<tt>Condition</tt> methods are different than the corresponding
-<tt>Object</tt> versions.
-
-<p> The {@link java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractQueuedSynchronizer}
-class serves as a useful superclass for defining locks and other
-synchronizers that rely on queuing blocked threads. The {@link
-java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer} class
-provides the same functionality but extends support to 64 bits of
-synchronization state. Both extend class {@link
-java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractOwnableSynchronizer}, a simple
-class that helps record the thread currently holding exclusive
-synchronization. The {@link java.util.concurrent.locks.LockSupport}
-class provides lower-level blocking and unblocking support that is
-useful for those developers implementing their own customized lock
-classes.
