The getPlain() method of a AtomicReference class is used to return the current value of AtomicReference object, with memory semantics of reading as if the variable was declared non-volatile.
Syntax:
public final V getPlain()
Parameters: This method accepts nothing.
Return value: This method returns the value of AtomicReference.
Below programs illustrate the getPlain() method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate // AtomicReference.getPlain() method import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReference; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an atomic reference object. AtomicReference<Integer> ref = new AtomicReference<Integer>(); // set some value ref.set( 564324 ); // get value using getPlain() int value = ref.getPlain(); // print System.out.println( "Value = " + value); } } |
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate // AtomicReference.getPlain() method import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReference; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an atomic reference object. AtomicReference<String> ref = new AtomicReference<String>(); // set some value ref.set( "AtomicReference value" ); // get value getPlain() String value = ref.getPlain(); // print System.out.println( "Value = " + value); } } |
