Class AtomicLongFieldUpdater<T>

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

public abstract class AtomicLongFieldUpdater<T>
extends Object

A reflection-based utility that enables atomic updates to designated volatile long 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.

1.5

Constructors

AtomicLongFieldUpdater

protected AtomicLongFieldUpdater()

Protected do-nothing constructor for use by subclasses.

Methods

newUpdater

public static <U> AtomicLongFieldUpdater<U> newUpdater(Class<U> tclass,
                                                       String fieldName)

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:
U - the type of instances of tclass
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 long 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,
                                      long expect,
                                      long update)

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:
true if successful
Throws:
ClassCastException - if obj is not an instance of the class possessing the field established in the constructor

weakCompareAndSet

public abstract boolean weakCompareAndSet(T obj,
                                          long expect,
                                          long update)

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:
true if successful
Throws:
ClassCastException - if obj is not an instance of the class possessing the field established in the constructor

set

public abstract void set(T obj,
                         long newValue)

Sets the field of the given object managed by this updater to the given updated value. This operation is guaranteed to act as a volatile store with respect to subsequent invocations of compareAndSet.

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

lazySet

public abstract void lazySet(T obj,
                             long newValue)

Eventually sets the field of the given object managed by this updater to the given updated value.
