Interface TxnBoolean

  • All Superinterfaces:
    TxnObject
    All Known Implementing Classes:
    GammaTxnBoolean

    public interface TxnBoolean
    extends TxnObject
    A Transactional Reference comparable to the Clojure Ref. If a method is prefixed with atomic, the call will always run under its own txn, no matter if there already is a txn available (so the propagation level is PropagationLevel.RequiresNew). For the other methods, always an txn needs to be available, else you will get the TxnMandatoryException.

    ControlFlowError

    All non atomic methods are able to throw a (subclass) of the ControlFlowError. This error should not be caught, it is task of the TxnExecutor to deal with.

    TransactionExecutionException

    Most of the methods can throw a TxnExecutionException. This exception can be caught, but in most cases you want to figure out what the cause is (e.g. because there are too many retries) and solve that problem.

    Threadsafe

    All methods are threadsafe.

      • atomicGet

        boolean atomicGet()
        Atomically gets the value. The value could be stale as soon as it is returned. This method doesn't care about any running txns. It could be that this call fails e.g. when a ref is locked. If you don't care about correct orderings, see the atomicWeakGet().
        Returns:
        the current value.
        Throws:
        TxnExecutionException
      • atomicWeakGet

        boolean atomicWeakGet()
        Atomically gets the value without providing any ordering guarantees. This method is extremely cheap and will never fail. So even if the ref is privatized, this call will still complete.

        It is the best method to call if you just want to get the current value stored.

        Returns:
        the value.
      • atomicSet

        boolean atomicSet​(boolean newValue)
        Atomically sets the value and returns the new value. This method doesn't care about any running txns.
        Parameters:
        newValue - the new value.
        Returns:
        the new value.
        Throws:
        TxnExecutionException
      • atomicGetAndSet

        boolean atomicGetAndSet​(boolean newValue)
        Atomically sets the value and returns the previous value. This method doesn't care about any running txns.
        Parameters:
        newValue - the new value.
        Returns:
        the old value.
        Throws:
        TxnExecutionException
      • commute

        void commute​(BooleanFunction function)
        Applies the function on the ref in a commuting manner. So if there are no dependencies, the function will commute. If somehow there already is a dependency or a dependency is formed on the result of the commuting function, the function will not commute and will be exactly the same as an alter.

        This is different than the behavior in Clojure where the commute will be re-applied at the end of the txn, even though some dependency is introduced, which can lead to inconsistencies.

        This call lifts on the Txn stored in the TxnThreadLocal.

        Parameters:
        function - the function to apply to this reference.
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if function is null.
        TxnExecutionException - if something failed while using the txn. The txn is guaranteed to have been aborted.
        ControlFlowError - if the Stm needs to control the flow in a different way than normal returns of exceptions. The txn is guaranteed to have been aborted.

If somehow there already is a dependency or a dependency is formed on the result of the commuting function, the function will not commute and will be exactly the same as an alter.

        ControlFlowError - if the Stm needs to control the flow in a different way than normal returns of exceptions. The txn is guaranteed to have been aborted.
