Remarks

Acquires the write lock unless the current thread is Thread#interrupt interrupted.

Acquires the write lock if neither the read nor write lock are held by another thread and returns immediately, setting the write lock hold count to one.

If the current thread already holds this lock then the hold count is incremented by one and the method returns immediately.

If the lock is held by another thread then the current thread becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and lies dormant until one of two things happens:

<ul>

<li>The write lock is acquired by the current thread; or

<li>Some other thread Thread#interrupt interrupts the current thread.

</ul>

If the write lock is acquired by the current thread then the lock hold count is set to one.

If the current thread:

<ul>

<li>has its interrupted status set on entry to this method; or

<li>is Thread#interrupt interrupted while acquiring the write lock,

</ul>

then InterruptedException is thrown and the current thread's interrupted status is cleared.

In this implementation, as this method is an explicit interruption point, preference is given to responding to the interrupt over normal or reentrant acquisition of the lock.
