AtomicReference
public AtomicReference(V initialValue)
Creates a new AtomicReference with the given initial value.- Parameters:
initialValue
- the initial value
-
AtomicReference

Method Detail
-
get
public final V get()
Gets the current value.- Returns:
- the current value
-
set
public final void set(V newValue)
Sets to the given value.- Parameters:
newValue
- the new value
-
lazySet
public final void lazySet(V newValue)
Eventually sets to the given value.- Parameters:
newValue
- the new value- Since:
- 1.6
-
compareAndSet
public final boolean compareAndSet(V expect, V update)
Atomically sets the value to the given updated value if the current value==
the expected value.- Parameters:
expect
- the expected valueupdate
- 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(V expect, V 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 valueupdate
- the new value- Returns:
- true if successful.
-
getAndSet
public final V getAndSet(V newValue)
Atomically sets to the given value and returns the old value.- Parameters:
newValue
- the new value- Returns:
- the previous value
