Class AtomicInteger

java.lang.Number

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 VarHandle specification for descriptions of the properties of atomic accesses. 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.

Atomically sets the value to newValue if the current value == expectedValue, with memory effects as specified by VarHandle.compareAndSet(java.lang.Object...).

Parameters:

expectedValue - the expected value

true if successful. False return indicates that the actual value was not equal to the expected value.

weakCompareAndSet

@Deprecated(since="9")
public final boolean weakCompareAndSet(int expectedValue,
 int newValue)

Deprecated.

This method has plain memory effects but the method name implies volatile memory effects (see methods such as compareAndExchange(int, int) and compareAndSet(int, int)). To avoid confusion over plain or volatile memory effects it is recommended that the method weakCompareAndSetPlain(int, int) be used instead.

Possibly atomically sets the value to newValue if the current value == expectedValue, with memory effects as specified by VarHandle.weakCompareAndSetPlain(java.lang.Object...).

Parameters:

expectedValue - the expected value

newValue - the new value

Returns:

true if successful
