/**
* Just to indicate that a method must be called inside a lock. When using
* read-write locks (class ReadWriteLock), please choose the lock type
* carefully. When using exclusive locks (class Lock) use the lock type
* WRITE. The constraint of this annotation is also fulfilled when
* a method is called inside the constructor of the owning class, as
* constructor-calls of a single object are not accessed by multiple threads in
* parallel.
