22  * This interface declares the functionality of the OJB internal Locking mechanism.
23  * A default implementaion LockManagerDefaultImpl is provided. This implementaion
24  * keeps distributed locks in the database. The locking mechanisms thus involves a
25  * lot of database lookups and writes. For some environments this solution may not
26  * be adequate. OJB allows to provide user defined implementations of this interface.
27  * To activate a user defined LockManagerDefaultImpl it must be configured in the OJB.properties file.
