Interface AtomicStampedReference<V>

Type Parameters:
V - the type of object referred to by this reference
All Known Implementing Classes:
LocalAtomicStampedReference, RemoteAtomicStampedReference

public interface AtomicStampedReference<V>
An AtomicStampedReference maintains an object reference along with an integer "stamp", that can be updated atomically.

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    Return non-blocking API for this atomic reference.
    boolean
    attemptStamp(V expectedReference, int nNewStamp)
    Atomically sets the value of the stamp to the given update value if the current reference is == to the expected reference.
    boolean
    compareAndSet(V expectedReference, V newReference, int nExpectedStamp, int nNewStamp)
    Atomically sets the value of both the reference and stamp to the given update values if the current reference is == to the expected reference and the current stamp is equal to the expected stamp.
    get(int[] iaStampHolder)
    Returns the current values of both the reference and the stamp.
    Returns the current value of the reference.
    int
    Returns the current value of the stamp.
    void
    set(V newReference, int nNewStamp)
    Unconditionally sets the value of both the reference and stamp.
  • Method Details

    • async

      Return non-blocking API for this atomic reference.
      Returns:
      non-blocking API for this atomic reference
    • getReference

      V getReference()
      Returns the current value of the reference.
      Returns:
      the current value of the reference
    • getStamp

      int getStamp()
      Returns the current value of the stamp.
      Returns:
      the current value of the stamp
    • get

      V get(int[] iaStampHolder)
      Returns the current values of both the reference and the stamp. Typical usage is int[1] holder; ref = v.get(holder); .
      Parameters:
      iaStampHolder - an array of size of at least one. On return, stampHolder[0] will hold the value of the stamp.
      Returns:
      the current value of the reference
    • compareAndSet

      boolean compareAndSet(V expectedReference, V newReference, int nExpectedStamp, int nNewStamp)
      Atomically sets the value of both the reference and stamp to the given update values if the current reference is == to the expected reference and the current stamp is equal to the expected stamp.
      Parameters:
      expectedReference - the expected value of the reference
      newReference - the new value for the reference
      nExpectedStamp - the expected value of the stamp
      nNewStamp - the new value for the stamp
      Returns:
      true if successful
    • set

      void set(V newReference, int nNewStamp)
      Unconditionally sets the value of both the reference and stamp.
      Parameters:
      newReference - the new value for the reference
      nNewStamp - the new value for the stamp
    • attemptStamp

      boolean attemptStamp(V expectedReference, int nNewStamp)
      Atomically sets the value of the stamp to the given update value if the current reference is == to the expected reference. Any given invocation of this operation may fail (return false) spuriously, but repeated invocation when the current value holds the expected value and no other thread is also attempting to set the value will eventually succeed.
      Parameters:
      expectedReference - the expected value of the reference
      nNewStamp - the new value for the stamp
      Returns:
      true if successful
