ASF GitHub Bot commented on JENA-1212: -------------------------------------- Github user ehedgehog commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/jena/pull/157 I don't see that an AtomicBoolean has any advantage over a volatile variable in this code. The only changes made are setting `cancelled` (the volatile boolean) from `false` (initial value) to `true` when `cancel()` is called. Once it's true it stays true. And the only place it is written to and read from from is within AbortableComparator itself. Is volatile perhaps not noisy enough to trigger a reader's notice?
