atomic_flag::test_and_set

 

Defined in header <atomic>
bool test_and_set(std::memory_order order = std::memory_order_seq_cst) volatile noexcept;	(1)	(since C++11)
bool test_and_set(std::memory_order order = std::memory_order_seq_cst) noexcept;	(2)	(since C++11)

Atomically changes the state of a std::atomic_flag to set (true) and returns the value it held before.

Parameters

order

-

the memory synchronization ordering for this operation
