public virtual bool WeakCompareAndSet (bool expectedValue, bool newValue);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("weakCompareAndSet", "(ZZ)Z", "GetWeakCompareAndSet_ZZHandler")>]
abstract member WeakCompareAndSet : bool * bool -> bool
override this.WeakCompareAndSet : bool * bool -> bool

Parameters

expectedValue: Boolean

the expected value

newValue: Boolean

the new value

Returns

Boolean

true if successful

Attributes: RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Possibly atomically sets the value to newValue if the current value == expectedValue, with memory effects as specified by VarHandle#weakCompareAndSetPlain.

This member is deprecated. This method has plain memory effects but the method name implies volatile memory effects (see methods such as #compareAndExchange and #compareAndSet). To avoid confusion over plain or volatile memory effects it is recommended that the method #weakCompareAndSetPlain be used instead.
