Class AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer

    java.lang.Object
      java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractOwnableSynchronizer
          java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable

    public abstract class AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer

extends AbstractOwnableSynchronizer
implements Serializable

A version of `AbstractQueuedSynchronizer` in which synchronization state is maintained as a `long`. This class has exactly the same structure, properties, and methods as `AbstractQueuedSynchronizer` with the exception that all state-related parameters and results are defined as `long` rather than `int`. This class may be useful when creating synchronizers such as multilevel locks and barriers that require 64 bits of state.

See `AbstractQueuedSynchronizer` for usage notes and examples.

Since:
  1.6

Constructor Detail

### AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer

    protected AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer()

  Creates a new `AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer` instance with initial synchronization state of zero.

Method Detail

### getState

    protected final long getState()

  Returns the current value of synchronization state. This operation has memory semantics of a `volatile` read.

  Returns:
    current state value

### setState

    protected final void setState(long newState)

  Sets the value of synchronization state. This operation has memory semantics of a `volatile` write.

  Parameters:
    `newState` - the new state value

### compareAndSetState

    protected final boolean compareAndSetState(long expect,
                                               long update)

  Atomically sets synchronization state to the given updated value if the current state value equals the expected value. This operation has memory semantics of a `volatile` read and write.

  Parameters:
    `expect` - the expected value
    `update` - the new value
  Returns:
    true if successful. False return indicates that the actual value was not equal to the expected value.

### tryAcquire

    protected boolean tryAcquire(long arg)

  Attempts to acquire in exclusive mode. This method should query if the state of the object permits it to be acquired in the exclusive mode, and if so to acquire it.

  This method is always invoked by the thread performing acquire. If this method reports failure, the acquire method may queue the thread, if it is not already queued, until it is signalled by a release from some other thread. This can be used to implement method `Lock.tryLock()`.

  The default implementation throws `UnsupportedOperationException`.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the acquire argument. This value is always the one passed to an acquire method, or is the value saved on entry to a condition wait. The value is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.
  Returns:
    `true` if successful. Upon success, this object has been acquired.
  Throws:
    `IllegalMonitorStateException` - if acquiring would place this synchronizer in an illegal state. This exception must be thrown in a consistent fashion for synchronization to work correctly.
    `UnsupportedOperationException` - if exclusive mode is not supported

### tryRelease

    protected boolean tryRelease(long arg)

  Attempts to set the state to reflect a release in exclusive mode.

  This method is always invoked by the thread performing release.

  The default implementation throws `UnsupportedOperationException`.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the release argument. This value is always the one passed to a release method, or the current state value upon entry to a condition wait. The value is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.
  Returns:
    `true` if this object is now in a fully released state, so that any waiting threads may attempt to acquire; and `false` otherwise.
  Throws:
    `IllegalMonitorStateException` - if releasing would place this synchronizer in an illegal state. This exception must be thrown in a consistent fashion for synchronization to work correctly.
    `UnsupportedOperationException` - if exclusive mode is not supported

### tryAcquireShared

    protected long tryAcquireShared(long arg)

  Attempts to acquire in shared mode. This method should query if the state of the object permits it to be acquired in the shared mode, and if so to acquire it.

  This method is always invoked by the thread performing acquire. If this method reports failure, the acquire method may queue the thread, if it is not already queued, until it is signalled by a release from some other thread.

  The default implementation throws `UnsupportedOperationException`.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the acquire argument. This value is always the one passed to an acquire method, or is the value saved on entry to a condition wait. The value is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.
  Returns:
    a negative value on failure; zero if acquisition in shared mode succeeded but no subsequent shared-mode acquire can succeed; and a positive value if acquisition in shared mode succeeded and subsequent shared-mode acquires might also succeed, in which case a subsequent waiting thread must check availability. (Support for three different return values enables this method to be used in contexts where acquires only sometimes act exclusively.) Upon success, this object has been acquired.
  Throws:
    `IllegalMonitorStateException` - if acquiring would place this synchronizer in an illegal state. This exception must be thrown in a consistent fashion for synchronization to work correctly.
    `UnsupportedOperationException` - if shared mode is not supported

### tryReleaseShared

    protected boolean tryReleaseShared(long arg)

  Attempts to set the state to reflect a release in shared mode.

  This method is always invoked by the thread performing release.

  The default implementation throws `UnsupportedOperationException`.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the release argument. This value is always the one passed to a release method, or the current state value upon entry to a condition wait. The value is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.
  Returns:
    `true` if this release of shared mode may permit a waiting acquire (shared or exclusive) to succeed; and `false` otherwise
  Throws:
    `IllegalMonitorStateException` - if releasing would place this synchronizer in an illegal state. This exception must be thrown in a consistent fashion for synchronization to work correctly.
    `UnsupportedOperationException` - if shared mode is not supported

### isHeldExclusively

    protected boolean isHeldExclusively()

  Returns `true` if synchronization is held exclusively with respect to the current (calling) thread. This method is invoked upon each call to a non-waiting `AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer.ConditionObject` method. (Waiting methods instead invoke `release(long)`.)

  The default implementation throws `UnsupportedOperationException`. This method is invoked internally only within `AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer.ConditionObject` methods, so need not be defined if conditions are not used.

  Returns:
    `true` if synchronization is held exclusively; `false` otherwise
  Throws:
    `UnsupportedOperationException` - if conditions are not supported

### acquire

    public final void acquire(long arg)

  Acquires in exclusive mode, ignoring interrupts. Implemented by invoking at least once `tryAcquire(long)`, returning on success. Otherwise the thread is queued, possibly repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking `tryAcquire(long)` until success. This method can be used to implement method `Lock.lock()`.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the acquire argument. This value is conveyed to `tryAcquire(long)` but is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.

### acquireInterruptibly

    public final void acquireInterruptibly(long arg)
                                    throws InterruptedException

  Acquires in exclusive mode, aborting if interrupted. Implemented by first checking interrupt status, then invoking at least once `tryAcquire(long)`, returning on success. Otherwise the thread is queued, possibly repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking `tryAcquire(long)` until success or the thread is interrupted. This method can be used to implement method `Lock.lockInterruptibly()`.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the acquire argument. This value is conveyed to `tryAcquire(long)` but is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.
  Throws:
    `InterruptedException` - if the current thread is interrupted

### tryAcquireNanos

    public final boolean tryAcquireNanos(long arg,
                                         long nanosTimeout)
                                  throws InterruptedException

  Attempts to acquire in exclusive mode, aborting if interrupted, and failing if the given timeout elapses. Implemented by first checking interrupt status, then invoking at least once `tryAcquire(long)`, returning on success. Otherwise, the thread is queued, possibly repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking `tryAcquire(long)` until success or the thread is interrupted or the timeout elapses. This method can be used to implement method `Lock.tryLock(long, TimeUnit)`.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the acquire argument. This value is conveyed to `tryAcquire(long)` but is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.
    `nanosTimeout` - the maximum number of nanoseconds to wait
  Returns:
    `true` if acquired; `false` if timed out
  Throws:
    `InterruptedException` - if the current thread is interrupted

### release

    public final boolean release(long arg)

  Releases in exclusive mode. Implemented by unblocking one or more threads if `tryRelease(long)` returns true. This method can be used to implement method `Lock.unlock()`.

  Returns:
    the value returned from `tryRelease(long)`

### acquireShared

    public final void acquireShared(long arg)

  Acquires in shared mode, ignoring interrupts. Implemented by first invoking at least once `tryAcquireShared(long)`, returning on success. Otherwise the thread is queued, possibly repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking `tryAcquireShared(long)` until success.

                                          throws InterruptedException

  Acquires in shared mode, aborting if interrupted. Implemented by first checking interrupt status, then invoking at least once `tryAcquireShared(long)`, returning on success. Otherwise the thread is queued, possibly repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking `tryAcquireShared(long)` until success or the thread is interrupted.

  Parameters:
    `arg` - the acquire argument. This value is conveyed to `tryAcquireShared(long)` but is otherwise uninterpreted and can represent anything you like.

                                               long nanosTimeout)
                                        throws InterruptedException

  Attempts to acquire in shared mode, aborting if interrupted, and failing if the given timeout elapses. Implemented by first checking interrupt status, then invoking at least once `tryAcquireShared(long)`, returning on success. Otherwise, the thread is queued, possibly repeatedly blocking and unblocking, invoking `tryAcquireShared(long)` until success or the thread is interrupted or the timeout elapses.

  Returns:
    the value returned from `tryReleaseShared(long)`

### hasQueuedThreads

    public final boolean hasQueuedThreads()

  Queries whether any threads are waiting to acquire. Note that because cancellations due to interrupts and timeouts may occur at any time, a `true` return does not guarantee that any other thread will ever acquire.

  In this implementation, this operation returns in constant time.

  Returns:
    `true` if there may be other threads waiting to acquire

### hasContended

    public final boolean hasContended()

  Queries whether any threads have ever contended to acquire this synchronizer; that is if an acquire method has ever blocked.

  In this implementation, this operation returns in constant time.

  Returns:
    `true` if there has ever been contention

### getFirstQueuedThread

    public final Thread getFirstQueuedThread()

  Returns the first (longest-waiting) thread in the queue, or `null` if no threads are currently queued.

  In this implementation, this operation normally returns in constant time, but may iterate upon contention if other threads are concurrently modifying the queue.

  Returns:
    the first (longest-waiting) thread in the queue, or `null` if no threads are currently queued

### isQueued

    public final boolean isQueued(Thread thread)

  Returns true if the given thread is currently queued.

  This implementation traverses the queue to determine presence of the given thread.

  Parameters:
    `thread` - the thread
  Returns:
    `true` if the given thread is on the queue
  Throws:
    `NullPointerException` - if the thread is null

### getQueueLength

    public final int getQueueLength()

  Returns an estimate of the number of threads waiting to acquire. The value is only an estimate because the number of threads may change dynamically while this method traverses internal data structures. This method is designed for use in monitoring system state, not for synchronization control.

  Returns:
    the estimated number of threads waiting to acquire

### getQueuedThreads

    public final Collection<Thread> getQueuedThreads()

  Returns a collection containing threads that may be waiting to acquire. Because the actual set of threads may change dynamically while constructing this result, the returned collection is only a best-effort estimate. The elements of the returned collection are in no particular order. This method is designed to facilitate construction of subclasses that provide more extensive monitoring facilities.

  Returns:
    the collection of threads

### getExclusiveQueuedThreads

    public final Collection<Thread> getExclusiveQueuedThreads()

  Returns a collection containing threads that may be waiting to acquire in exclusive mode. This has the same properties as `getQueuedThreads()` except that it only returns those threads waiting due to an exclusive acquire.

  Returns:
    the collection of threads

### getSharedQueuedThreads

    public final Collection<Thread> getSharedQueuedThreads()

  Returns a collection containing threads that may be waiting to acquire in shared mode. This has the same properties as `getQueuedThreads()` except that it only returns those threads waiting due to a shared acquire.

  Returns:
    the collection of threads

### toString

    public String toString()

  Returns a string identifying this synchronizer, as well as its state. The state, in brackets, includes the String `"State ="` followed by the current value of `getState()`, and either `"nonempty"` or `"empty"` depending on whether the queue is empty.

  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `Object`
  Returns:
    a string identifying this synchronizer, as well as its state

### owns

    public final boolean owns(AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer.ConditionObject condition)

  Queries whether the given ConditionObject uses this synchronizer as its lock.

  Parameters:
    `condition` - the condition
  Returns:
    `true` if owned
  Throws:
    `NullPointerException` - if the condition is null

### hasWaiters

    public final boolean hasWaiters(AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer.ConditionObject condition)

  Queries whether any threads are waiting on the given condition associated with this synchronizer. Note that because timeouts and interrupts may occur at any time, a `true` return does not guarantee that a future `signal` will awaken any threads. This method is designed primarily for use in monitoring of the system state.

  Parameters:
    `condition` - the condition
  Returns:
    `true` if there are any waiting threads
  Throws:
    `IllegalMonitorStateException` - if exclusive synchronization is not held
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if the given condition is not associated with this synchronizer
    `NullPointerException` - if the condition is null

### getWaitQueueLength

    public final int getWaitQueueLength(AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer.ConditionObject condition)

  Returns an estimate of the number of threads waiting on the given condition associated with this synchronizer. Note that because timeouts and interrupts may occur at any time, the estimate serves only as an upper bound on the actual number of waiters. This method is designed for use in monitoring of the system state, not for synchronization control.

  Parameters:
    `condition` - the condition
  Returns:
    the estimated number of waiting threads
  Throws:
    `IllegalMonitorStateException` - if exclusive synchronization is not held
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if the given condition is not associated with this synchronizer
    `NullPointerException` - if the condition is null

### getWaitingThreads

    public final Collection<Thread> getWaitingThreads(AbstractQueuedLongSynchronizer.ConditionObject condition)

  Returns a collection containing those threads that may be waiting on the given condition associated with this synchronizer. Because the actual set of threads may change dynamically while constructing this result, the returned collection is only a best-effort estimate. The elements of the returned collection are in no particular order.

  Parameters:
    `condition` - the condition
  Returns:
    the collection of threads
  Throws:
    `IllegalMonitorStateException` - if exclusive synchronization is not held
    `IllegalArgumentException` - if the given condition is not associated with this synchronizer
    `NullPointerException` - if the condition is null
