When using the C# `lock` keyword or similar to enter and exit a lock, the type of the expression must be precisely `System.Threading.Lock`. If the type of the expression is anything else, such as `Object` or a generic type like `T`, a different implementation that is not interchangeable can be used instead (such as <xref:System.Threading.Monitor>). For more information, see the relevant [compiler speclet](https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/blob/main/proposals/lock-object.md).

<xref:System.Threading.Thread.Interrupt%2A> can interrupt threads that are waiting to enter a lock. On Windows STA threads, waits for locks allow message pumping that can run other code on the same thread during a wait. Some features of the waits can be overridden by a custom <xref:System.Threading.SynchronizationContext>.
