---------------------------------------
Hello [~smertk]
Thank you for your request.
Feel free to create a PR on GitHub. Use the Builder to add features, not a new
constructor.
> Fairness setting in TimedSemaphore
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-1790
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1790
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: lang.concurrent.*
> Reporter: Mert Kirpici
> Priority: Major
>
> The {{TimedSemaphore}} structure javadocs do not mention anything about
> fairness.
> If this is something that the current implementation does not provide, the
> {{TimedSemaphore}} structure could benefit from a _fairness_ setting like the
> {{java.util.concurrent.Semaphore}} does, which will queue up the threads that
> are blocked by the {{.acquire()}} call and when the timer expires, they will
> be permitted access to the shared resource in a FIFO fashion.
> A possible implementation could be like this in the constructor:
> {{TimedSemaphore(long timePeriod, TimeUnit timeUnit, int limit, boolean
> fair)}}
