The java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicBoolean.set() is an inbuilt method in java that updates the previous value and sets it to a new value which is passed in the parameter.
Syntax:
public final void set(boolean newVal)
Parameters: The function accepts a single mandatory parameter newVal which is to be updated.
Return Value: The function does not returns anything.
Below programs illustrate the above function:
Program 1:
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicBoolean;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String args[])
{
AtomicBoolean val
= new AtomicBoolean( false );
System.out.println( "Previous value: "
+ val);
val.set( true );
System.out.println( "Current value: "
+ val);
}
}
|
Output:
Previous value: false
Current value: true
Program 2:
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicBoolean;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String args[])
{
AtomicBoolean val
= new AtomicBoolean( true );
System.out.println( "Previous value: "
+ val);
val.set( false );
System.out.println( "Current value: "
+ val);
}
}
|
Output:
