The setPlain() method of a AtomicReference class is used to set the value of this AtomicReference object with memory semantics of setting as if the variable was declared non-volatile and non-final.
Syntax:
public final void setPlain(V newValue)
Parameters: This method accepts newValue which is the new value to set.
Return value: This method returns nothing.
Below programs illustrate the setPlain() method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate // AtomicReference.setPlain() method import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReference;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// create an atomic reference object.
AtomicReference<Long> ref
= new AtomicReference<Long>();
// set some value using setPlain method
ref.setPlain(999945678979L);
// print value
System.out.println( "value = " + ref.get());
}
} |
Output:
Program 2:
// Java program to demonstrate // AtomicReference.setPlain() 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 using setPlain()
ref.setPlain( "String Buffer" );
// print value
System.out.println( "Class = " + ref.get());
}
} |
