Introduction to Atomic Long Field Updater and List of Functions
AtomicLong Field Updater can update atoms to specify "members of the'volatile long'type of class". It is based on the principle of reflection.
AtomicLong Field Updater Function List
// Protected no-operation constructor for use by subclasses. protected AtomicLongFieldUpdater() // Atomically adds a given value to the current value of the field of a given object managed by this updater. long addAndGet(T obj, long delta) // If the current value == the expected value, set the field of the given object managed by the updater atomically to the given update value. abstract boolean compareAndSet(T obj, long expect, long update) // Atomically subtract 1 from the current value of a given object field managed by this updater. long decrementAndGet(T obj) // Gets the current value managed by this updater in the field of a given object. abstract long get(T obj) // Atomically adds a given value to the current value of the field of a given object managed by this updater. long getAndAdd(T obj, long delta) // Atomically subtract 1 from the current value of a given object field managed by this updater. long getAndDecrement(T obj) // Atomically adds 1 to the current value of a given object field managed by this updater. long getAndIncrement(T obj) // Atomically set the field of a given object managed by this updater to a given value and return the old value. long getAndSet(T obj, long newValue) // Atomically add 1 to the current value of a given object field managed by this updater. long incrementAndGet(T obj) // Finally, set the field of the given object managed by this updater to the given update value. abstract void lazySet(T obj, long newValue) // Creates and returns an updater with a given field for the object. static <U> AtomicLongFieldUpdater<U> newUpdater(Class<U> tclass, String fieldName) // Set the field of the given object managed by this updater to the given update value. abstract void set(T obj, long newValue) // If the current value == the expected value, set the field of the given object managed by the updater atomically to the given update value. abstract boolean weakCompareAndSet(T obj, long expect, long update)
An example of AtomicLong Field Updater
// LongTest.java source code import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicLongFieldUpdater; public class LongFieldTest { public static void main(String[] args) { // Get Person's class object Class cls = Person.class; // New AtomicLongFieldUpdater object with passing parameters of "class object" and "corresponding name of long type in class" AtomicLongFieldUpdater mAtoLong = AtomicLongFieldUpdater.newUpdater(cls, "id"); Person person = new Person(12345678L); // Compare the person's "id" attribute to 1000 if the ID value is 12345678L. mAtoLong.compareAndSet(person, 12345678L, 1000); System.out.println("id="+person.getId()); } } class Person { volatile long id; public Person(long id) { this.id = id; } public void setId(long id) { this.id = id; } public long getId() { return id; } }
Operation results:
id=1000

The process of LongFieldTest.java is analyzed below.
1. newUpdater()
The source code for newUpdater() is as follows:
public static <U> AtomicLongFieldUpdater<U> newUpdater(Class<U> tclass, String fieldName) { Class<?> caller = Reflection.getCallerClass(); if (AtomicLong.VM_SUPPORTS_LONG_CAS) return new CASUpdater<U>(tclass, fieldName, caller); else return new LockedUpdater<U>(tclass, fieldName, caller); }
Note: The function of newUpdater() is to get an object of Atomic IntegerField Updater type.
It actually returns a CASUpdater object, or a LockedUpdater object; which class it returns depends on whether the JVM supports a CAS function of long type. CASUpdater and LockedUpdater are subclasses of Atomic IntegerField Updater, and their implementations are similar. The following is illustrated with CASUpdater.
The source code for the CASUpdater class is as follows:
public boolean compareAndSet(T obj, long expect, long update) { if (obj == null || obj.getClass() != tclass || cclass != null) fullCheck(obj); return unsafe.compareAndSwapLong(obj, offset, expect, update); }
Description: It is actually operated through CAS functions. If the value of the long object of the class is expect, set its value to update.
