Hi,
Thanks for your post but point no. 3 & 6 are contradictory under "Important points on Volatile keyword in Java" section.
In my opinion, Volatile only guarantees "Visibility" but not atomicity. Since long/double variable does not support atomicity so possible solution for them would be using Atomic* apis.
