Constructor Detail

AtomicBoolean

public AtomicBoolean(boolean initialValue)

Creates a new AtomicBoolean with the given initial value.

Parameters:

initialValue - the initial value

---

AtomicBoolean

public AtomicBoolean()

Creates a new AtomicBoolean with initial value false.

Method Detail

get

public final boolean get()

Returns the current value.

Returns:

the current value

---

compareAndSet

public final boolean compareAndSet(boolean expect,
                                   boolean 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(boolean expect,
                                 boolean 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.

---

set

public final void set(boolean newValue)

Unconditionally sets to the given value.

Parameters:

newValue - the new value

---

getAndSet

public final boolean getAndSet(boolean newValue)

Sets to the given value and returns the previous value.

Parameters:

newValue - the new value

Returns:

the previous 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.
