< c‎ | atomic

Defined in header `<stdatomic.h>` |  |
void atomic_init( volatile A* obj, C desired ); |  | (since C11)

Initializes the default-constructed atomic object `object` with the value `desired`. The function is not atomic: concurrent access from another thread, even through an atomic operation, is a data race.

This is a generic function defined for all atomic object types. `A` is the type of an atomic object, `C` is the non-atomic type corresponding to `A`.
