Public Methods

    final    boolean  compareAndSet(int i, E expect, E update)
Atomically set the value to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value.
    final    E  get(int i)
Get the current value at position i.
    final    E  getAndSet(int i, E newValue)
Set the element at position i to the given value and return the old value.

Details

Public Constructors

public AtomicReferenceArray(int length)

Create a new AtomicReferenceArray of given length.

Parameters

length the length of the array

public AtomicReferenceArray(E[] array)

Create a new AtomicReferenceArray with the same length as, and all elements copied from, the given array.

Parameters

array the array to copy elements from

Throws

NullPointerException if array is null

Public Methods

public final boolean compareAndSet(int i, E expect, E update)

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

Parameters

i the index
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.

public final E get(int i)

Get the current value at position i.

Parameters

i the index

Returns

  • the current value

public final E getAndSet(int i, E newValue)

Set the element at position i to the given value and return the old value.

Parameters

i the index
newValue the new value

Returns

  • the previous value

public final int length()

Returns the length of the array.

Returns

  • the length of the array

public final void set(int i, E newValue)

Set the element at position i to the given value.

Parameters

i the index
newValue the new value

public String toString()

Returns the String representation of the current values of array.

Returns

  • the String representation of the current values of array.

public final boolean weakCompareAndSet(int i, E expect, E update)

Atomically set the value to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value. May fail spuriously.

Parameters

i the index
expect the expected value
update the new value

Returns

  • true if successful.
