Subject: Restricting File Access to One User at a Time

Hello:
I have been perusing your excellent documentation of the Java security
features and functionailty. I need to rapidly implement (write or
locate) a tool that will allow only one writer to access a file at any
time. All writers have full acess to all the document files, but only
one writer can access any file at one time.
I could not locate specific Java security features that could enforce
this. Any suggestions would be most welcome.
Regards
