Parameters

[in, out] Destination
Pointer to the destination value. The sign is ignored.

Value to compare to destination. The sign is ignored.

Return Value

The return value is the initial value of the Destination pointer.

Remarks

_InterlockedCompareExchange performs an atomic comparison of the Destination value with the Comparand value. If the Destination value is equal to the Comparand value, the Exchange value is stored in the address specified by Destination. Otherwise, no operation is performed.

_InterlockedCompareExchange provides compiler intrinsic support for the Win32 Windows SDK InterlockedCompareExchange function.

There are several variations on _InterlockedCompareExchange that vary based on the data types they involve and whether processor-specific acquire or release semantics is used.

While the _InterlockedCompareExchange function operates on long integer values, _InterlockedCompareExchange8 operates on 8-bit integer values, _InterlockedCompareExchange16 operates on short integer values and _InterlockedCompareExchange64 operates on 64-bit integer values.

On ARM platforms, use the intrinsics with _acq and _rel suffixes for acquire and release semantics, such as at the beginning and end of a critical section. The ARM intrinsics with an _nf ("no fence") suffix do not act as a memory barrier.

The intrinsics with an _np ("no prefetch") suffix prevent a possible prefetch operation from being inserted by the compiler.

On Intel platforms that support Hardware Lock Elision (HLE) instructions, the intrinsics with _HLEAcquire and _HLERelease suffixes include a hint to the processor that can accelerate performance by eliminating a lock write step in hardware. If these intrinsics are called on platforms that do not support HLE, the hint is ignored.

These routines are only available as intrinsics.

Example

In the following example, _InterlockedCompareExchange is used for simple low-level thread synchronization. The approach has its limitations as a basis for multithreaded programming; it is presented to illustrate the typical use of the interlocked intrinsics. For best results, use the Windows API. For further information about multithreaded programming, see Writing a Multithreaded Win32 Program.

// compile with: /EHsc /O2
// Simple example of using _Interlocked* intrinsics to
// do manual synchronization
//
// Add [-DSKIP_LOCKING] to the command line to disable
// the locking. This will cause the threads to execute out
// of sequence.
