Type Parameters:

T - Object data type.

public class SharedObjectArray<T>
extends java.lang.Object

Class SharedObjectArray provides an array reduction variable with elements of an object type.

Class SharedObjectArray is multiple thread safe. The methods use lock-free atomic compare-and-set.

Note: Class SharedObjectArray is implemented using class java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReferenceArray.

Constructor Detail

SharedObjectArray

public SharedObjectArray(int len)

Construct a new object array reduction variable with the given length. Each array element is initially null.

Parameters:

len - Length.

Throws:

java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException - (unchecked exception) Thrown if len < 0.

SharedObjectArray

public SharedObjectArray(T[] array)

Construct a new object array reduction variable whose elements are copied from the given array.

Parameters:

array - Array to copy.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - (unchecked exception) Thrown if array is null.

Method Detail

length

public int length()

Returns this array reduction variable's length.

Returns:

Length.

get

public T get(int i)

Returns this array reduction variable's current value at the given index.

Parameters:

i - Index.

Returns:

Current value.

set

public void set(int i,
                T value)

Set this array reduction variable at the given index to the given value.

Parameters:

i - Index.

value - New value.

getAndSet

public T getAndSet(int i,
                   T value)

Set this array reduction variable at the given index to the given value and return the previous value.

Parameters:

i - Index.

value - New value.

Returns:

Previous value.

compareAndSet

public boolean compareAndSet(int i,
                             T expect,
                             T update)

Atomically set this array reduction variable at the given index to the given updated value if the current value equals the expected value.

Parameters:

i - Index.

expect - Expected value.

update - Updated value.

Returns:

True if the update happened, false otherwise.

weakCompareAndSet

public boolean weakCompareAndSet(int i,
                                 T expect,
                                 T update)

Atomically set this array reduction variable at the given index to the given updated value if the current value equals the expected value. May fail spuriously.

Parameters:

i - Index.

expect - Expected value.

update - Updated value.

Returns:

True if the update happened, false otherwise.

reduce

public T reduce(int i,
                T value,
                ObjectOp<T> op)

Combine this array reduction variable at the given index with the given value using the given operation. (This array [i]) is set to (this array [i]) op (value), then (this array [i]) is returned.

Parameters:

i - Index.

value - Value.

op - Binary operation.

Returns:

(This array [i]) op (value).

reduce

public void reduce(T[] src,
                   ObjectOp<T> op)

Combine this array reduction variable with the given array using the given operation. For each index i from 0 to this array's length-1, (this array [i]) is set to (this array [i]) op (src[i]).

The reduce() method is multiple thread safe on a per-element basis. Each individual array element is updated atomically, but the array as a whole is not updated atomically.

Parameters:

src - Source array.

op - Binary operation.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - (unchecked exception) Thrown if src is null. Thrown if op is null.

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - (unchecked exception) Thrown if any array index would be out of bounds.

reduce

public void reduce(int dstoff,
                   T[] src,
                   int srcoff,
                   int len,
                   ObjectOp<T> op)

Combine a portion of this array reduction variable with a portion of the given array using the given operation. For each index i from 0 to len-1, (this array [dstoff+i]) is set to (this array [dstoff+i]) op (src[srcoff+i]).

The reduce() method is multiple thread safe on a per-element basis. Each individual array element is updated atomically, but the array as a whole is not updated atomically.

Parameters:

dstoff - Index of first element to update in this array.

src - Source array.

srcoff - Index of first element to update from in the source array.

len - Number of array elements to update.

op - Binary operation.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - (unchecked exception) Thrown if src is null. Thrown if op is null.

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException - (unchecked exception) Thrown if len < 0. Thrown if any array index would be out of bounds.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string version of this array reduction variable.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

String version.
