+ * @class LockFile
+ *
+ * LockFile represents a locked file suitable for a coarse-grain system
+ * lock. For example, the broker uses this to ensure that only one broker
+ * runs. A common usage idiom is to store the current "owner" process ID
+ * in the lock file - if the lock file exists, but the stored process ID
+ * doesn't, the old owner has probably died without cleaning up the lock
+ * file.
