/**
 * An asynchronous channel for reading, writing, and manipulating a file.
 *
 * <p> An asynchronous file channel is created when a file is opened by invoking
 * one of the {@link #open open} methods defined by this class. The file contains
 * a variable-length sequence of bytes that can be read and written and whose
 * current size can be {@link #size() queried}. The size of the file increases
 * when bytes are written beyond its  current size; the size of the file decreases
 * when it is {@link #truncate truncated}.
 *
 * <p> An asynchronous file channel does not have a <i>current position</i>
 * within the file. Instead, the file position is specified to each read and
 * write method that initiates asynchronous operations. A {@link CompletionHandler}
 * is specified as a parameter and is invoked to consume the result of the I/O
 * operation. This class also defines read and write methods that initiate
 * asynchronous operations, returning a {@link Future} to represent the pending
 * result of the operation. The {@code Future} may be used to check if the
 * operation has completed, wait for its completion, and retrieve the result.
 *
 * <p> In addition to read and write operations, this class defines the
 * following operations: </p>
 *
 * <ul>
 *
 *   <li><p> Updates made to a file may be {@link #force <i>forced
 *   out</i>} to the underlying storage device, ensuring that data are not
 *   lost in the event of a system crash.  </p></li>
 *
 *   <li><p> A region of a file may be {@link #lock <i>locked</i>} against
 *   access by other programs.  </p></li>
 *
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p> An {@code AsynchronousFileChannel} is associated with a thread pool to
 * which tasks are submitted to handle I/O events and dispatch to completion
 * handlers that consume the results of I/O operations on the channel. The
 * completion handler for an I/O operation initiated on a channel is guaranteed
 * to be invoked by one of the threads in the thread pool (This ensures that the
 * completion handler is run by a thread with the expected <em>identity</em>).
 * Where an I/O operation completes immediately, and the initiating thread is
 * itself a thread in the thread pool, then the completion handler may be invoked
 * directly by the initiating thread. When an {@code AsynchronousFileChannel} is
 * created without specifying a thread pool then the channel is associated with
 * a system-dependent default thread pool that may be shared with other
 * channels. The default thread pool is configured by the system properties
 * defined by the {@link AsynchronousChannelGroup} class.
 *
 * <p> Channels of this type are safe for use by multiple concurrent threads. The
 * {@link Channel#close close} method may be invoked at any time, as specified
 * by the {@link Channel} interface. This causes all outstanding asynchronous
 * operations on the channel to complete with the exception {@link
 * AsynchronousCloseException}. Multiple read and write operations may be
 * outstanding at the same time. When multiple read and write operations are
 * outstanding then the ordering of the I/O operations, and the order that the
 * completion handlers are invoked, is not specified; they are not, in particular,
 * guaranteed to execute in the order that the operations were initiated. The
 * {@link java.nio.ByteBuffer ByteBuffers} used when reading or writing are not
 * safe for use by multiple concurrent I/O operations. Furthermore, after an I/O
 * operation is initiated then care should be taken to ensure that the buffer is
 * not accessed until after the operation has completed.
 *
 * <p> As with {@link FileChannel}, the view of a file provided by an instance of
 * this class is guaranteed to be consistent with other views of the same file
 * provided by other instances in the same program.  The view provided by an
 * instance of this class may or may not, however, be consistent with the views
 * seen by other concurrently-running programs due to caching performed by the
 * underlying operating system and delays induced by network-filesystem protocols.
 * This is true regardless of the language in which these other programs are
 * written, and whether they are running on the same machine or on some other
 * machine.  The exact nature of any such inconsistencies are system-dependent
 * and are therefore unspecified.
 *
 * @since 1.7
