Package io.vertx.rxjava.core.file

## Class AsyncFile

- java.lang.Object
- - io.vertx.rxjava.core.file.AsyncFile

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `ReadStream<Buffer>`, `StreamBase`, `WriteStream<Buffer>`

      public class AsyncFile
      extends Object
      implements ReadStream<Buffer>, WriteStream<Buffer>

  Represents a file on the file-system which can be read from, or written to asynchronously.

  This class also implements `ReadStream` and `WriteStream`. This allows the data to be piped to and from other streams, e.g. an `HttpClientRequest` instance, using the `Pipe` class

  NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the `original` non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.

      Acquire a non-shared lock on the entire file.

      When the `block` is called, the lock is already acquired, it will be released when the `Future` returned by the block completes.

      When the `block` fails, the lock is released and the returned future is failed with the cause of the failure.

      Parameters:
        `block` - the code block called after lock acquisition
      Returns:
        the future returned by the `block`

    - #### withLock

          public <T> Future<T> withLock​(long position,

      Acquire a lock on a portion of this file.

      When the `block` is called, the lock is already acquired , it will be released when the `Future` returned by the block completes.

      When the `block` fails, the lock is released and the returned future is failed with the cause of the failure.

      Parameters:
        `position` - where the region starts
        `size` - the size of the region
        `shared` - whether the lock should be shared
