• Key Concepts: 
  The Locking Manager is a component of the BC-JAS Java Application Server. It is responsible for managing the locks on objects in the system, such as database tables, files, and other resources. It ensures that only one user can access a particular object at a time, preventing conflicts between users. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The Locking Manager is used to manage locks on objects in the system. When a user attempts to access an object, the Locking Manager checks if the object is already locked by another user. If it is, the user will be denied access until the lock is released. If it is not locked, the Locking Manager will create a lock for the user and allow them to access the object. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to remember that locks are only released when a user has finished using an object. Therefore, it is important to ensure that users release locks as soon as they are done with an object, so that other users can access it.
