Initializes a new instance of the LockFactory class

Attempt to clear (forcefully unlock and remove) the specified lock. Only call this at a time when you are certain this lock is no longer in use.

Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.

Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Serves as a hash function for a particular type.

Get the prefix in use for all locks created in this LockFactory.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Return a new Lock instance identified by lockName.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Set the prefix in use for all locks created in this LockFactory. This is normally called once, when a Directory gets this LockFactory instance. However, you can also call this (after this instance is assigned to a Directory) to override the prefix in use. This is helpful if you're running Lucene on machines that have different mount points for the same shared directory.

Returns a String that represents the current Object.
