== Why is this an issue?
``++java.util.concurrent.locks.Lock++`` offers far more powerful and flexible locking operations than are available with ``++synchronized++`` blocks. So synchronizing on a ``++Lock++`` throws away the power of the object, and is just silly. Instead, such objects should be locked and unlocked using ``++tryLock()++`` and ``++unlock()++``.
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,java]
----
Lock lock = new MyLockImpl();
synchronized(lock) { // Noncompliant
//...
}
----
=== Compliant solution
[source,java]
----
Lock lock = new MyLockImpl();
lock.tryLock();
//...
----
