AtomicInteger (Java Platform SE 7 b138)

java.lang.Object
- 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 java.util.concurrent.atomic package specification for description of the properties of atomic variables. 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.

Since:

1.5

- Constructor Detail
  - AtomicInteger
```
public AtomicInteger(int initialValue)
```
    Creates a new AtomicInteger with the given initial value.
    
    Parameters:
    initialValue - the initial value
  - AtomicInteger
```
public AtomicInteger()
```
    Creates a new AtomicInteger with initial value 0.
- Method Detail
  - get
```
public final int get()
```
    Gets the current value.
    
    Returns:
    the current value
  - set
```
public final void set(int newValue)
```
    Sets to the given value.
    
    Parameters:
    newValue - the new value
  - lazySet
```
public final void lazySet(int newValue)
```
    Eventually sets to the given value.
    
    Parameters:
    newValue - the new value
    Since:
    
    1.6
  - getAndSet
```
public final int getAndSet(int newValue)
```
    Atomically sets to the given value and returns the old value.
    
    Parameters:
    newValue - the new value
    
    Returns:
    the previous value
  - compareAndSet
```
public final boolean compareAndSet(int expect,
                    int update)
```
    Atomically sets 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 final boolean weakCompareAndSet(int expect,
                        int update)
```
    Atomically sets the value to the given updated value if the current value == the expected value.
    May fail spuriously and does not provide ordering guarantees, so is only rarely an appropriate alternative to compareAndSet.
    
    Parameters:
    expect - the expected value
    update - the new value
    
    Returns:
    true if successful.
  - getAndIncrement
```
public final int getAndIncrement()
```
    Atomically increments by one the current value.
    
    Returns:
    the previous value
  - getAndDecrement
```
public final int getAndDecrement()
```
    Atomically decrements by one the current value.
    
    Returns:
    the previous value
  - getAndAdd
```
public final int getAndAdd(int delta)
```
    Atomically adds the given value to the current value.
    
    Parameters:
    delta - the value to add
    
    Returns:
    the previous value
  - incrementAndGet
```
public final int incrementAndGet()
```
    Atomically increments by one the current value.
    
    Returns:
    the updated value
  - decrementAndGet
```
public final int decrementAndGet()
```
    Atomically decrements by one the current value.
    
    Returns:
    the updated value
  - addAndGet
```
public final int addAndGet(int delta)
```
    Atomically adds the given value to the current value.
    
    Parameters:
    delta - the value to add
    
    Returns:
    the updated 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.
  - intValue
```
public int intValue()
```
    Description copied from class: Number
    
    Returns the value of the specified number as an int. This may involve rounding or truncation.
    
    Specified by:
    
    intValue in class Number
    
    Returns:
    the numeric value represented by this object after conversion to type int.
