# JLock

A jar to ensure the uniqueness of execution of an java application.

![example](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AndreiDodu/JLock/master/example_a.png)

### How to use it?

At the application startup

```java

JLock jLock = new JLock("MY_APPLICATION_NAME", ENABLE_AUTOMATIC_UNLOCK);

if (jLock.isLocked()){

  MessageDialog.error(your_jform, "Application is already running!");

  System.exit(3);

}

```

where `MY_APPLICATION_NAME` is the application name and the boolean `ENABLE_AUTOMATIC_UNLOCK`, if true, enables the automatic unlocking when `System.exit(X)` is called.

To release automatically (ENABLE_AUTOMATIC_UNLOCK have to be true):

```java

System.exit(status);

```

To release manually:

```java

jLock.release();

```

## Maven
