Class AtomicInteger

java.lang.Object

java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable

public class AtomicInteger
extends Number
implements Serializable
An int value that may be updated atomically. See the java.util.concurrent.atomic package specification for description of the properties of atomic variables. An AtomicInteger is used in applications such as atomically incremented counters, and cannot be used as a replacement for an Integer. However, this class does extend Number to allow uniform access by tools and utilities that deal with numerically-based classes.

  • Constructor Details

    • AtomicInteger

      public AtomicInteger​(int initialValue)
      Creates a new AtomicInteger with the given initial value.
      Parameters:
      initialValue - the initial value
    • AtomicInteger

      public AtomicInteger()
      Creates a new AtomicInteger with initial value 0.
  • Method Details

    • get

      public final int get()
      Gets the current value.
      Returns:
      the current value
    • set

      public final void set​(int newValue)
      Sets to the given value.
      Parameters:
      newValue - the new value
    • lazySet

      public final void lazySet​(int newValue)
      Eventually sets to the given value.
      Parameters:
      newValue - the new value

      1.6
    • getAndSet

      public final int getAndSet​(int newValue)
      Atomically sets to the given value and returns the old value.
      Parameters:
      newValue - the new value
      Returns:
      the previous value
    • compareAndSet

      public final boolean compareAndSet​(int expect, int update)
      Atomically sets 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 final boolean weakCompareAndSet​(int expect, int 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 value
      update - the new value
      Returns:
      true if successful
    • getAndIncrement

      public final int getAndIncrement()
      Atomically increments by one the current value.
      Returns:
      the previous value
    • getAndDecrement

      public final int getAndDecrement()
      Atomically decrements by one the current value.
      Returns:
      the previous value
    • getAndAdd

      public final int getAndAdd​(int delta)
      Atomically adds the given value to the current value.
      Parameters:
      delta - the value to add
      Returns:
      the previous value
    • incrementAndGet

      public final int incrementAndGet()
      Atomically increments by one the current value.
      Returns:
      the updated value
    • decrementAndGet

      public final int decrementAndGet()
      Atomically decrements by one the current value.
      Returns:
      the updated value
    • addAndGet

      public final int addAndGet​(int delta)
      Atomically adds the given value to the current value.
      Parameters:
      delta - the value to add
      Returns:
      the updated value
    • toString

      public String toString()
      Returns the String representation of the current value.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
      Returns:
      the String representation of the current value
