AtomicReferenceArray setRelease() method in Java with Examples

The setRelease() method of a AtomicReferenceArray class is used to set the value of the element at index i to newValue. Both index i and newValue are passed as parameters to the method. This method set the value with memory effects as specified by VarHandle.setRelease(java.lang.Object…). This method has memory ordering effects compatible with memory_order_release ordering.

Syntax:

public final void setRelease(int i, E newValue)

Parameters: This method accepts:

  • i which is an index of AtomicReferenceArray to perform the operation,
  • newValue which is the new value to set.

Return value: This method returns nothing.

Below programs illustrate the setRelease() method:
Program 1:




// Java program to demonstrate
// setRelease() method
  
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.*;
  
public class GFG {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // create an atomic reference object.
        AtomicReferenceArray<Integer> ref
            = new AtomicReferenceArray<Integer>(5);
  
        // set some value and print
        ref.setRelease(0, 1324);
        ref.setRelease(1, 144);
        ref.setRelease(2, 322);
  
        System.out.println(
            "Value of index 0 = "
            + ref.get(0));
        System.out.println(
            "Value of index 1 = "
            + ref.get(1));
        System.out.println(
            "Value of index 2 = "
            + ref.get(2));
    }
}


Output:

Program 2:




// Java program to demonstrate
// setRelease() method
  
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.*;
  
public class GFG {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        // create an atomic reference object.c
        AtomicReferenceArray<String> ref
            = new AtomicReferenceArray<String>(5);
  
        // set some value
        ref.setRelease(0, "C");
        ref.setRelease(1, "PYTHON");
        ref.setRelease(2, "TS");
        ref.setRelease(3, "C++");
        ref.setRelease(4, "C");
  
        // print
        for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
            System.out.println(ref.get(i));
        }
    }
}
