_bittestandset, _bittestandset64
Microsoft Specific
Generate an instruction which examines bit b of the address a, returns its current value, and sets the bit to 1.
unsigned char _bittestandset(
long *a,
long b
);
unsigned char _bittestandset64(
__int64 *a,
__int64 b
);
Parameters
[in, out] a
A pointer to the memory to examine.[in] b
The bit position to test.
Return Value
The bit at the position specified.

Remarks
This routine is only available as an intrinsic.
Example
// bittestandset.cpp
// processor: x86, ARM, x64
// This example uses several of the _bittest family of intrinsics
// to implement a Flags class that allows bit level access to an
// integer field.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <intrin.h>
