Function

GLibatomic_int_get

since: 2.4

Declaration

gint
g_atomic_int_get (
  volatile const gint* atomic
)

Description

Gets the current value of atomic.

This call acts as a full compiler and hardware memory barrier (before the get).

While atomic has a volatile qualifier, this is a historical artifact and the pointer passed to it should not be volatile.

Available since: 2.4

Parameters

atomic

Type: volatile const gint*

A pointer to a #gint or #guint.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

Return value

Type: gint

The value of the integer.
