A container that manages multiple locks as a single entity. When acquire() is called, all the locks are acquired. If that fails, any paths that were acquired are released. Similarly, when release() is called, all locks are released (failures are ignored).

• InterProcessMultiLock
• InterProcessLock

public InterProcessMultiLock(List<InterProcessLock> locks)
Creates a multi lock of any type of inter process lock
Parameters:
locks - the locks

public InterProcessMultiLock(CuratorFramework client,
                             List<String> paths)
Creates a multi lock of InterProcessMutexes
Parameters:
client - client
paths - list of paths to manage in the order that they are to be locked

The usage is the same as for Shared Lock. However, When acquire() is called, all the locks are acquired. If that fails, any paths that were acquired are released. Similarly, when release() is called, all locks are released (failures are ignored).

It is strongly recommended that you add a ConnectionStateListener and watch for SUSPENDED and LOST state changes. If a SUSPENDED state is reported you cannot be certain that you still hold the lock unless you subsequently receive a RECONNECTED state. If a LOST state is reported it is certain that you no longer hold the lock.
