AtomicInteger (Java Platform SE 6) (original) (raw)



java.util.concurrent.atomic

Class AtomicInteger

java.lang.Object extended by java.lang.Number extended by java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable


public class AtomicInteger

extends Number

implements Serializable

An int value that may be updated atomically. See thejava.util.concurrent.atomic package specification for description of the properties of atomic variables. AnAtomicInteger is used in applications such as atomically incremented counters, and cannot be used as a replacement for anInteger. However, this class does extendNumber to allow uniform access by tools and utilities that deal with numerically-based classes.

Since:

1.5

Constructor Detail

AtomicInteger

public AtomicInteger(int initialValue)

Creates a new AtomicInteger with the given initial value.

Parameters:

initialValue - the initial value


AtomicInteger

public AtomicInteger()

Creates a new AtomicInteger with initial value 0.

Method Detail

get

public final int get()

Gets the current value.

Returns:

the current value


set

public final void set(int newValue)

Sets to the given value.

Parameters:

newValue - the new value


lazySet

public final void lazySet(int newValue)

Eventually sets to the given value.

Parameters:

newValue - the new value

Since:

1.6


getAndSet

public final int getAndSet(int newValue)

Atomically sets to the given value and returns the old value.

Parameters:

newValue - the new value

Returns:

the previous value


compareAndSet

public final boolean compareAndSet(int expect, int update)

Atomically sets the value to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value.

Parameters:

expect - the expected value

update - the new value

Returns:

true if successful. False return indicates that the actual value was not equal to the expected value.


weakCompareAndSet

public final boolean weakCompareAndSet(int expect, int update)

Atomically sets the value to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value.

May fail spuriously and does not provide ordering guarantees, so is only rarely an appropriate alternative to compareAndSet.

Parameters:

expect - the expected value

update - the new value

Returns:

true if successful.


getAndIncrement

public final int getAndIncrement()

Atomically increments by one the current value.

Returns:

the previous value


getAndDecrement

public final int getAndDecrement()

Atomically decrements by one the current value.

Returns:

the previous value


getAndAdd

public final int getAndAdd(int delta)

Atomically adds the given value to the current value.

Parameters:

delta - the value to add

Returns:

the previous value


incrementAndGet

public final int incrementAndGet()

Atomically increments by one the current value.

Returns:

the updated value


decrementAndGet

public final int decrementAndGet()

Atomically decrements by one the current value.

Returns:

the updated value


addAndGet

public final int addAndGet(int delta)

Atomically adds the given value to the current value.

Parameters:

delta - the value to add

Returns:

the updated value


toString

public String toString()

Returns the String representation of the current value.

Overrides:

[toString](../../../../java/lang/Object.html#toString%28%29) in class [Object](../../../../java/lang/Object.html "class in java.lang")

Returns:

the String representation of the current value.


intValue

public int intValue()

Description copied from class: [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#intValue%28%29)

Returns the value of the specified number as an int. This may involve rounding or truncation.

Specified by:

[intValue](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#intValue%28%29) in class [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html "class in java.lang")

Returns:

the numeric value represented by this object after conversion to type int.


longValue

public long longValue()

Description copied from class: [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#longValue%28%29)

Returns the value of the specified number as a long. This may involve rounding or truncation.

Specified by:

[longValue](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#longValue%28%29) in class [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html "class in java.lang")

Returns:

the numeric value represented by this object after conversion to type long.


floatValue

public float floatValue()

Description copied from class: [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#floatValue%28%29)

Returns the value of the specified number as a float. This may involve rounding.

Specified by:

[floatValue](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#floatValue%28%29) in class [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html "class in java.lang")

Returns:

the numeric value represented by this object after conversion to type float.


doubleValue

public double doubleValue()

Description copied from class: [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#doubleValue%28%29)

Returns the value of the specified number as a double. This may involve rounding.

Specified by:

[doubleValue](../../../../java/lang/Number.html#doubleValue%28%29) in class [Number](../../../../java/lang/Number.html "class in java.lang")

Returns:

the numeric value represented by this object after conversion to type double.
