Java 9 Concurrency Cookbook - Second Edition

How to do it...

Follow these steps to implement the example:

1. Create a class named ParkingCounter and specify that it extends the AtomicInteger class:

        public class ParkingCounter extends AtomicInteger {

2. Declare a private int attribute named maxNumber to store the maximum number of cars admitted into the parking lot:

        private final int maxNumber;

3. Implement the constructor of the class to initialize its attributes:

        public ParkingCounter(int maxNumber){           set(0);           this.maxNumber=maxNumber;         }

4. Implement the carIn() method. This method increments the counter of cars if it has a value smaller than the established maximum value. Construct an infinite loop and get the value of the internal counter using the get() method:

 public boolean ...
