From FileChannel javadoc:
a file channel can be obtained from an existing FileInputStream, FileOutputStream, or RandomAccessFile object by invoking that object's getChannel method, which returns a file channel that is connected to the same underlying file.
The FileChannel has methods to obtain a FileLock object on all or part of a file channel. When no longer needed, FileLock.release() will release the lock.
