Class AtomicIntegerFieldUpdater<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - The type of the object holding the updatable field


    public abstract class AtomicIntegerFieldUpdater<T>
    extends Object
    A reflection-based utility that enables atomic updates to designated volatile int fields of designated classes. This class is designed for use in atomic data structures in which several fields of the same node are independently subject to atomic updates.

    Note that the guarantees of the compareAndSet method in this class are weaker than in other atomic classes. Because this class cannot ensure that all uses of the field are appropriate for purposes of atomic access, it can guarantee atomicity only with respect to other invocations of compareAndSet and set on the same updater.

    Object arguments for parameters of type T that are not instances of the class passed to newUpdater(java.lang.Class<U>, java.lang.String) will result in a ClassCastException being thrown.

        Creates and returns an updater for objects with the given field. The Class argument is needed to check that reflective types and generic types match.
        Type Parameters:

        Parameters:
        tclass - the class of the objects holding the field
        fieldName - the name of the field to be updated
        Returns:
        the updater
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if the field is not a volatile integer type
        RuntimeException - with a nested reflection-based exception if the class does not hold field or is the wrong type, or the field is inaccessible to the caller according to Java language access control
      • compareAndSet

        public abstract boolean compareAndSet​(T obj,
                                              int expect,

        Atomically sets the field of the given object managed by this updater to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value. This method is guaranteed to be atomic with respect to other calls to compareAndSet and set, but not necessarily with respect to other changes in the field.
        Parameters:
        obj - An object whose field to conditionally set
        expect - the expected value
        update - the new value
        Returns:

      • weakCompareAndSet

        public abstract boolean weakCompareAndSet​(T obj,
                                                  int expect,

        Atomically sets the field of the given object managed by this updater to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value. This method is guaranteed to be atomic with respect to other calls to compareAndSet and set, but not necessarily with respect to other changes in the field.

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

        Parameters:
        obj - An object whose field to conditionally set
        expect - the expected value
        update - the new value
        Returns:

        Parameters:
        obj - An object whose field to set
        newValue - the new value
