Example of AtomicIntegerArray in Java

By Arvind Rai, December 25, 2012

1. AtomicIntegerArray belongs to the package java.util.concurrent.atomic.
2. java.util.concurrent.atomic is an array of integer.
3. AtomicIntegerArray is thread- safe. The values of AtomicIntegerArray can be modified automatically in multi threaded environment.
4. AtomicIntegerArray is available in java from jdk1.5.

package com.concretepage;

import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicIntegerArray;

public class AtomicIntegerArrayTest {
	AtomicIntegerArray aia= new AtomicIntegerArray(10);
	class AddThread implements Runnable{

		@Override
		public void run() {
		//add the value 2 at index 1 
		aia.addAndGet(1,15);
		
		//at index 0, if current value is 15, then 5 is added to current value
		aia.compareAndSet(1,15,5);
		
			System.out.println(aia.get(1));
		}
		
	}
	
	class SubThread implements Runnable{

		@Override
		public void run() {
			
			//decrements by 1 from current value at index 1 
			aia.decrementAndGet(1);
			
			//weakly compare the first args to current value and sets
			aia.weakCompareAndSet(1,14,20);
			System.out.println(aia.get(1));
		}
		
	}
	
   public static void main(String... args){
	   new Thread(new AtomicIntegerArrayTest().new AddThread()).start();
	   new Thread(new AtomicIntegerArrayTest().new SubThread()).start();
   }
}
