- java.lang.Object

- java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicMarkableReference<V>
-
- Type Parameters:
V
- The type of object referred to by this reference
public class AtomicMarkableReference<V> extends Object
AnAtomicMarkableReference
maintains an object reference along with a mark bit, that can be updated atomically.Implementation note: This implementation maintains markable references by creating internal objects representing "boxed" [reference, boolean] pairs.

AtomicMarkableReference
public AtomicMarkableReference(V initialRef, boolean initialMark)
Creates a newAtomicMarkableReference
with the given initial values.- Parameters:
initialRef
- the initial referenceinitialMark
- the initial mark
-
-
Method Detail
-
getReference
public V getReference()
Returns the current value of the reference.- Returns:
- the current value of the reference
-
isMarked
public boolean isMarked()
Returns the current value of the mark.- Returns:
- the current value of the mark
-
get
public V get(boolean[] markHolder)
Returns the current values of both the reference and the mark. Typical usage isboolean[1] holder; ref = v.get(holder);
.- Parameters:
markHolder
- an array of size of at least one. On return,markholder[0]
will hold the value of the mark.- Returns:
- the current value of the reference
-
weakCompareAndSet
public boolean weakCompareAndSet(V expectedReference, V newReference, boolean expectedMark, boolean newMark)
Atomically sets the value of both the reference and mark to the given update values if the current reference is==
to the expected reference and the current mark is equal to the expected mark.May fail spuriously and does not provide ordering guarantees, so is only rarely an appropriate alternative to
compareAndSet
.- Parameters:
expectedReference
- the expected value of the referencenewReference
- the new value for the referenceexpectedMark
- the expected value of the marknewMark
- the new value for the mark- Returns:
- true if successful
-
compareAndSet
public boolean compareAndSet(V expectedReference, V newReference, boolean expectedMark, boolean newMark)
Atomically sets the value of both the reference and mark to the given update values if the current reference is==
to the expected reference and the current mark is equal to the expected mark.- Parameters:
expectedReference
- the expected value of the referencenewReference
- the new value for the referenceexpectedMark
- the expected value of the marknewMark
- the new value for the mark- Returns:
- true if successful
-
set
public void set(V newReference, boolean newMark)
Unconditionally sets the value of both the reference and mark.- Parameters:
newReference
- the new value for the referencenewMark
- the new value for the mark
-
attemptMark
public boolean attemptMark(V expectedReference, boolean newMark)
Atomically sets the value of the mark to the given update value if the current reference is==
to the expected reference. Any given invocation of this operation may fail (returnfalse
) spuriously, but repeated invocation when the current value holds the expected value and no other thread is also attempting to set the value will eventually succeed.- Parameters:
expectedReference
- the expected value of the referencenewMark
- the new value for the mark- Returns:
- true if successful
