public java.lang.String	getLockPrefix() Get the prefix in use for all locks created in this LockFactory. return this.lockPrefix;
public abstract org.apache.lucene.store.Lock	makeLock(java.lang.String lockName) Return a new Lock instance identified by lockName. param lockName name of the lock to be created.
public void	setLockPrefix(java.lang.String lockPrefix) Set the prefix in use for all locks created in this LockFactory. This is normally called once, when a Directory gets this LockFactory instance. However, you can also call this (after this instance is assigned to a Directory) to override the prefix in use. This is helpful if you're running Lucene on machines that have different mount points for the same shared directory. this.lockPrefix = lockPrefix;
