count++ atomic / thread safe?

[Peter Cork]

If I have something like:

 
public class Test {
    static int count;
    public int getUniqueCountValue(){
        return count++;
    }
} 

Am I right to assume this is not thread safe? ie the same number could be return by more than one thread.

Cheers

Yes, that's right. It's not thread safe.
