atomic_fetch_add_explicit Function
Adds a value to an existing value that is stored in an atomic object.
template <class T> T* atomic_fetch_add_explicit(
volatile atomic<T*> *Atom,
ptrdiff_t Value,
memory_order Order
) noexcept;
template <class T> T* atomic_fetch_add_explicit(
atomic<T*> *Atom,
ptrdiff_t Value,
memory_order Order
) noexcept;
Parameters
Atom
A pointer to an atomic object that stores a pointer to type T.Value
A value of type ptrdiff_t.
Return Value
The value of the pointer contained by the atomic object immediately before the operation was performed.
Remarks
The atomic_fetch_add_explicit function performs a read-modify-write operation to atomically add Value to the stored value in Atom, within the memory_order constraints that are specified by Order.
When the atomic type is atomic_address, Value has type ptrdiff_t and the operation treats the stored pointer as a char *.
This operation is also overloaded for integral types:
integral atomic_fetch_add_explicit(
volatile atomic-integral * Atom, integral Value, memory_order Order
) noexcept;
integral atomic_fetch_add_explicit(
atomic-integral * Atom, integral Value, memory_order Order
) noexcept;
