Class LongMaxUpdater

java.lang.Object
  extended by java.lang.Number
      extended by com.netflix.hystrix.util.LongMaxUpdater
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable

public class LongMaxUpdater
extends java.lang.Number
implements java.io.Serializable

One or more variables that together maintain a running long maximum with initial value Long.MIN_VALUE. When updates (method LongMaxUpdater.update(long)) are contended across threads, the set of variables may grow dynamically to reduce contention. Method LongMaxUpdater.max() (or, equivalently, LongMaxUpdater.longValue()) returns the current maximum across the variables maintaining updates.

This class extends Number, but does not define methods such as hashCode and compareTo because instances are expected to be mutated, and so are not useful as collection keys.

Constructor Detail

LongMaxUpdater

public LongMaxUpdater()
Creates a new instance with initial maximum of Long.MIN_VALUE.

Method Detail

update

public void update(long x)
Updates the maximum to be at least the given value.

Parameters:
x - the value to update

max

public long max()
Returns the current maximum. The returned value is NOT an atomic snapshot: Invocation in the absence of concurrent updates returns an accurate result, but concurrent updates that occur while the value is being calculated might not be incorporated.

Returns:
the maximum

reset

public void reset()
Resets variables maintaining updates to Long.MIN_VALUE. This method may be a useful alternative to creating a new updater, but is only effective if there are no concurrent updates. Because this method is intrinsically racy, it should only be used when it is known that no threads are concurrently updating.


maxThenReset

public long maxThenReset()
Equivalent in effect to LongMaxUpdater.max() followed by LongMaxUpdater.reset(). This method may apply for example during quiescent points between multithreaded computations. If there are updates concurrent with this method, the returned value is not guaranteed to be the final value occurring before the reset.

Returns:
the maximum

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
Returns the String representation of the LongMaxUpdater.max().

Overrides:
toString in class java.lang.Object
Returns:
the String representation of the LongMaxUpdater.max()

longValue

public long longValue()
Equivalent to LongMaxUpdater.max().

Specified by:
longValue in class java.lang.Number
Returns:
the maximum

intValue

public int intValue()
Returns the LongMaxUpdater.max() as an int after a narrowing primitive conversion.

Specified by:
intValue in class java.lang.Number

floatValue

public float floatValue()
Returns the LongMaxUpdater.max() as a float after a widening primitive conversion.

Specified by:
floatValue in class java.lang.Number

doubleValue

public double doubleValue()
Returns the LongMaxUpdater.max() as a double after a widening primitive conversion.

Specified by:
doubleValue in class java.lang.Number
