Provides instances of named locks.
Namespace: PostSharp.Patterns.Caching.Locking
Assembly: PostSharp.Patterns.Caching.dll
Syntax
public interface ILockManagerRemarks
Two implementations are provided: NullLockManager and LocalLockManager. To change the lock manager, set the LockManager property.
The caching aspect requests a lock named after the cache key when a cached method is not found in the cache, so that only one caller evaluates the method for a given set of arguments. To prevent concurrent evaluation across processes or machines, implement this interface and ILockHandle on top of a distributed lock.
