Feng Honghua created HBASE-10693: ------------------------------------ Summary: Correct declarations of Atomic* fields from 'volatile' to 'final' Key: HBASE-10693 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10693 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Components: io, master Reporter: Feng Honghua Assignee: Feng Honghua Priority: Minor
By checking the usage of these Atomic* fields, they themselves don't change once being assigned to referencing an Atomic* object, so 'final' rather than 'volatile' is more proper. On the other hand, the 'value' encapsulated in Atomic* is already declared 'volatile', while guarantees to perform correctly in multi-threads scenarios. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
