Function

GLibbit_unlock

since: 2.24

Declaration [src]

void
g_bit_unlock (
  volatile gint* address,
  gint lock_bit
)

[−]

Description [src]

Clears the indicated lock_bit in address. If another thread is currently blocked in g_bit_lock() on this same bit then it will be woken up.

This function accesses address atomically. All other accesses to address must be atomic in order for this function to work reliably. While address has a volatile qualifier, this is a historical artifact and the argument passed to it should not be volatile.
