Detailed Description

RWAtomicFlag manages a bit flag (set or cleared) allowing for atomic manipulation of the bit, including providing test-and-set functionality.

Example

RWAtomicFlag flag = RW_ATOMIC_FLAG_INIT;
while (!flag.testAndSet()) { ... }
...
flag.clear();

Note: While copy construction and assignment are not prohibited, these operations are not performed in an atomic manner, and may result in undefined behavior. These operations may be prohibited in a future release and should be avoided.

void RWAtomicFlag::clear ( RWAtomicMemoryOrder order = rw_mem_order_seq_cst )

inline

Unsets the flag.

Note: order values of rw_mem_order_consume, rw_mem_order_acquire and rw_mem_order_acq_rel are not supported and will result in undefined behavior.

void RWAtomicFlag::clear ( RWAtomicMemoryOrder order = rw_mem_order_seq_cst ) volatile

inline

Unsets the flag.

Note: order values of rw_mem_order_consume, rw_mem_order_acquire and rw_mem_order_acq_rel are not supported and will result in undefined behavior.

bool RWAtomicFlag::testAndSet ( RWAtomicMemoryOrder order = rw_mem_order_seq_cst )

inline

Sets the flag and returns true if the flag was previously set, false otherwise.

bool RWAtomicFlag::testAndSet ( RWAtomicMemoryOrder order = rw_mem_order_seq_cst ) volatile

inline

Sets the flag and returns true if the flag was previously set, false otherwise.
