Jordan Zimmerman commented on CURATOR-459:
------------------------------------------

Curator has an async lock with {{LeaderSelector}}. What's the advantage of 
adding this?

> Support for asynchronous locks in Curator Async

> It would be great to have a support for asynchronous locks. Here's an 
> interface suggestion
> {code:java}
> /**
>  * A non-reentrant Lock with the ability to react when the lock is acquired 
> async, so that the thread which
>  * acquires the lock is not blocked.
>  */
> public interface CompletableLock {
>  /**
>  * Acquire the lock non-blocking. The resulting {@link CompletableFuture} can 
> then be used to block
>  * until the lock is actually acquired. The {@link 
> CompletableFuture#cancel(boolean)} can be used
>  * to abort the acquisition of the lock. As soon as the lock is actually 
> acquired, this method has no
>  * effect. The Lock itself is then released with {@link Lease#unlock()}.
>  * <p>
>  * Several calls results in several independent locking requests. So it is 
> equivalent to
>  * call this method multiple times or get a new lock and then call the method 
> once.
>  *
>  * @return an instance of {@link CompletableFuture} which represents the 
> actual lock.
>  */
>  CompletableFuture<Lease> lock();
>  default void withLock(Runnable body) {
>  lock().thenAccept(lock -> {
>  try {
>  body.run();
>  } finally {
>  lock.unlock();
>  }
>  });
>  }
>  /**
>  * Same as {@link #lock()} but if the lock can't be acquired within the given 
> amount of time,
>  * the {@link CompletableFuture} throws a {@link 
> java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException} with a nested
>  * {@link java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException} when it is accessed the next 
> time.
>  *
>  * @param time the maximum waiting time for acquiring the lock.
>  * @param unit the {@link TimeUnit} for the given time.
>  * @return an instance of {@link CompletableFuture} which represents the 
> actual lock.

>  CompletableFuture<Lease> lock(int time, TimeUnit unit);
>  /**
>  * Gets the lock only if possible. If lock is currently acquired, this 
> returns immediately with an undefined option.
>  */
>  Optional<Lease> tryLock();
>  /**
>  * Gets the lock only if possible. If lock is currently acquired, this 
> returns an undefined option after the
>  * given timeout.
