    AtomicTypes::Uint* atomicUint,
    unsigned int compareValue,
    unsigned int swapValue);

Description

Conditionally set the value of the specified atomicUint to the specified swapValue if and only if the value of atomicInt equals the value of the specified compareValue, and return the initial value of atomicUint, providing the acquire/release memory ordering guarantee. The whole operation is performed atomically.

Return Value

initial value of atomicUint before the operation

Parameters
