/**
 * A token representing a lock on a region of a file.
 *
 * <p> A file-lock object is created each time a lock is acquired on a file via
 * one of the {@link FileChannel#lock(long,long,boolean) lock} or {@link
 * FileChannel#tryLock(long,long,boolean) tryLock} methods of the {@link
 * FileChannel} class.
 *
 * <p> A file-lock object is initially valid.  It remains valid until the lock
 * is released by invoking the {@link #release release} method, by closing the
 * channel that was used to acquire it, or by the termination of the Java
 * virtual machine, whichever comes first.  The validity of a lock may be
 * tested by invoking its {@link #isValid isValid} method.
 *
 * <p> A file lock is either <i>exclusive</i> or <i>shared</i>.  A shared lock
 * prevents other concurrently-running programs from acquiring an overlapping
 * exclusive lock, but does allow them to acquire overlapping shared locks.  An
 * exclusive lock prevents other programs from acquiring an overlapping lock of
 * either type.  Once it is released, a lock has no further effect on the locks
 * that may be acquired by other programs.
 *
 * <p> Whether a lock is exclusive or shared may be determined by invoking its
 * {@link #isShared isShared} method.  Some platforms do not support shared
 * locks, in which case a request for a shared lock is automatically converted
 * into a request for an exclusive lock.
 *
 * <p> The locks held on a particular file by a single Java virtual machine do
 * not overlap.  The {@link #overlaps overlaps} method may be used to test
 * whether a candidate lock range overlaps an existing lock.
 *
 * <p> A file-lock object records the file channel upon whose file the lock is
 * held, the type and validity of the lock, and the position and size of the
 * locked region.  Only the validity of a lock is subject to change over time;
 * all other aspects of a lock's state are immutable.
 *
 * <p> File locks are held on behalf of the entire Java virtual machine.
 * They are not suitable for controlling access to a file by multiple
 * threads within the same virtual machine.
 *
 * <p> File-lock objects are safe for use by multiple concurrent threads.
 *
 *
 * <a name="pdep">
 * <h4> Platform dependencies </h4>
 *
 * <p> This file-locking API is intended to map directly to the native locking
 * facility of the underlying operating system.  Thus the locks held on a file
 * should be visible to all programs that have access to the file, regardless
 * of the language in which those programs are written.
 *
 * <p> Whether or not a lock actually prevents another program from accessing
 * the content of the locked region is system-dependent and therefore
 * unspecified.  The native file-locking facilities of some systems are merely
 * <i>advisory</i>, meaning that programs must cooperatively observe a known
 * locking protocol in order to guarantee data integrity.  On other systems
 * native file locks are <i>mandatory</i>, meaning that if one program locks a
 * region of a file then other programs are actually prevented from accessing
 * that region in a way that would violate the lock.  On yet other systems,
 * whether native file locks are advisory or mandatory is configurable on a
 * per-file basis.  To ensure consistent and correct behavior across platforms,
 * it is strongly recommended that the locks provided by this API be used as if
 * they were advisory locks.
 *
 * <p> On some systems, acquiring a mandatory lock on a region of a file
 * prevents that region from being {@link java.nio.channels.FileChannel#map
 * </code>mapped into memory<code>}, and vice versa.  Programs that combine
 * locking and mapping should be prepared for this combination to fail.
 *
 * <p> On some systems, closing a channel releases all locks held by the Java
 * virtual machine on the underlying file regardless of whether the locks were
 * acquired via that channel or via another channel open on the same file.  It
 * is strongly recommended that, within a program, a unique channel be used to
 * acquire all locks on any given file.
 *
 * <p> Some network filesystems permit file locking to be used with
 * memory-mapped files only when the locked regions are page-aligned and a
 * whole multiple of the underlying hardware's page size.  Some network
 * filesystems do not implement file locks on regions that extend past a
 * certain position, often 2<sup>30</sup> or 2<sup>31</sup>.  In general, great
 * care should be taken when locking files that reside on network filesystems.
