> For the new implementations we need a new type of lock manager. We need something general that can be used for the file manager, the tx maps, and optionally can even be used in a general programming environment.
> This is my proposal. It is meant to be used by one or more transactional resource managers:
> public interface LockManager<K> {
>     public void startWork(long timeout, TimeUnit unit);
>     public void endWork();
>     public void lock(K key, boolean exclusive) throws LockException;
> }
> Where "startWork" starts a block of work for which a certain set of locks is required and "endWork" ends it. Only in between these call one can use the "lock" method to lock resources denoted by the given key. 
> The timeout is meant for the whole block of work and thus does not have to be passed with every lock request.
> At the end of the working block all locks are released. 
> The "lock" method throws an exception in case of timeout, interruption or deadlock.
