RE: Can a lock be acquired on a class

In class level the most exclusive lock can be achieved by synchronising the class's class object and declaring it static.

RE: Can a lock be acquired on a class

Classes can not be locked straightaway.
One can not tell

public synchronized class classname
{ }

But objects can be synchronized, also methods can be synchronized
