Parameters
- location1
Type: System.Int64%
The destination whose value is compared with comparand and possibly replaced.
- value
Type: System.Int64
The value that replaces the destination value if the comparison results in equality.
- comparand
Type: System.Int64
The value that is compared to the value at location1.
Return Value
Type: System.Int64
The original value in location1.
Remarks
If comparand and the value in location1 are equal, then value is stored in location1. Otherwise, no operation is performed. The comparison and the exchange are performed as an atomic operation. The return value of CompareExchange is the original value in location1, whether or not the exchange takes place.
