LockingCollectionResource

All Superinterfaces:

CollectionResource, LockableResource, Resource
```
public interface LockingCollectionResource
extends CollectionResource, LockableResource
```
A collection which allows locking "unmapped resources". This means that a LOCK method can effectively create an empty resource which is immediately locked. Implement this in conjunction with {@see LockableResource} on child resources to fully support locking.
Note that this interface now extends {@see LockableResource} because collection resources need to implement both in most cases.
If, however, you don't want your collection resources to be lockable, just implement {@see ConditionalCompatibleResource}.
