_InlineInterlockedAdd function (winnt.h)
Performs an atomic addition operation on the specified LONG values. The operation is performed with acquire memory ordering semantics.
Syntax
LONG _InlineInterlockedAdd(
[in, out] LONG volatile *Addend,
[in] LONG Value
);
Parameters
[in, out] Addend
A pointer to the first operand. This value will be replaced with the result of the operation.
[in] Value
The second operand.
Return value
The function returns the result of the operation.
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 _InterlockedAdd_acq.
