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)); } }} |
Output:
