/**
 * FileWriter that will create and honor lock files to allow simple cross thread file lock handling.
 * <p>
 * This class provides a simple alternative to {@link FileWriter} that will use a lock file to prevent duplicate writes.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * <b>Note:</b> The lock file is deleted when {@link #close()} is called - or if the main file cannot be opened initially. In the (unlikely) event that the lock
 * file cannot be deleted, an exception is thrown.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * By default, the file will be overwritten, but this may be changed to append. The lock directory may be specified, but defaults to the system property
 * {@code java.io.tmpdir}. The encoding may also be specified, and defaults to the platform default.
 * </p>

 * To build an instance, see {@link Builder}.
