Java 9 Concurrency Cookbook - Second Edition

How to do it...

Follow these steps to implement the example:

1. Create a class named TaskAtomic and specify that it implements the Runnable interface:

        public class TaskAtomic implements Runnable {

2. Declare a private AtomicInteger attribute named number:

        private final AtomicInteger number;

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

        public TaskAtomic () {           this.number=new AtomicInteger();         }

4. Implement the run() method. In a loop with 1,000,000 steps, assign the number of steps to the atomic attribute as a value, using the set() method:

        @Override         public void run() {           for (int i=0; i<1000000; i++) {             number.set(i);           }         }

5. Create a class named TaskLock and specify that it implements the Runnable interface: ...
