Constructor & Destructor Documentation

AtomicCounter

(

const char *

name

)

Create an atomic counter with an unspecified initial value. name should be a static string which describes the primitive for debugging purposes.

AtomicCounter	(	const char *	name,
		int	value
	)

Create an atomic counter with an initial value. name should be a static string which describes the primitive for debugging purposes.

~AtomicCounter

(

)

Destroy the atomic counter.

Member Function Documentation

operator int

(

)

const

Allows the atomic counter to be used in expressions like a normal integer. Note that multiple calls to this function may return different values if other threads are manipulating the counter.

int operator++

(

)

Increment the counter and return the new value. This does not return AtomicCounter& like a normal ++ operator would, because it would destroy atomicity

int operator++

(

int

)

Increment the counter and return the old value.

int operator--

(

)

Decrement the counter and return the new value This does not return AtomicCounter& like a normal – operator would, because it would destroy atomicity

int operator--

(

int

)

Decrement the counter and return the old value.

void set

(

int

v

)

Set the counter to a new value.
