Constructor Detail

AtomicInteger

public AtomicInteger(int initialValue)
Create a new AtomicInteger with the given initial value.

Parameters:
initialValue - the initial value

AtomicInteger

public AtomicInteger()
Create a new AtomicInteger with initial value 0.

Method Detail

get

public int get()
Get the current value.

Returns:
the current value

set

public void set(int newValue)
Set to the given value.

Parameters:
newValue - the new value

getAndSet

public int getAndSet(int newValue)
Set to the give value and return the old value.

Parameters:
newValue - the new value
Returns:
the previous value

compareAndSet

public boolean compareAndSet(int expect,
                             int update)
Atomically set 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 boolean weakCompareAndSet(int expect,
                                 int update)
Atomically set the value to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value. May fail spuriously.

Parameters:
expect - the expected value
update - the new value
Returns:
true if successful.

getAndIncrement

public int getAndIncrement()
Atomically increment by one the current value.

Returns:
the previous value

getAndDecrement

public int getAndDecrement()
Atomically decrement by one the current value.

Returns:
the previous value

getAndAdd

public int getAndAdd(int delta)
Atomically add the given value to current value.

Parameters:
delta - the value to add
Returns:
the previous value

incrementAndGet

public int incrementAndGet()
Atomically increment by one the current value.

Returns:
the updated value

decrementAndGet

public int decrementAndGet()
Atomically decrement by one the current value.

Returns:
the updated value

addAndGet

public int addAndGet(int delta)
Atomically add the given value to current value.

Parameters:
delta - the value to add
Returns:
the updated value
