Article
03/28/2018

Tests the specified bit of the specified LONG value and sets it to 0. The operation is atomic, and it is performed using memory release semantics.

Syntax

unsigned char __cdecl InterlockedbittestandresetRelease(
  _Inout_ LONG volatile Base,
  _In_    LONG          Bit
);

Parameters

Base [in, out]
A pointer to a variable.
Bit [in]
The bit position to be tested.

Return value

The value of the specified bit.

Remarks

The interlocked functions provide a simple mechanism for synchronizing access to a variable that is shared by multiple threads. This function is atomic with respect to calls to other interlocked functions.

This function is implemented using a compiler intrinsic where possible. For more information, see the WinBase.h header file and _interlockedbittestandreset_rel.

Note This function is supported on Windows RT-based systems.

Requirements

Minimum supported client	Windows 8 [desktop apps only]
Minimum supported server	Windows Server 2012 [desktop apps only]
Header	Winnt.h (include Windows.h)
