Defined in header <atomic>
template< class T > void atomic_init( std::atomic<T>* obj, T desired );		(since C++11)
template< class T > void atomic_init( volatile std::atomic<T>* obj, T desired );		(since C++11)

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.

If obj was not default-constructed, the behavior is undefined.

If this function is called twice on the same obj, the behavior is undefined.

Parameters

obj	-	pointer to an atomic object to initialize
desired	-	the value to initialize atomic object with

Return value

(none)

Exceptions

noexcept specification:  

noexcept

  

Notes

This function is provided for compatibility with C. If the compatibility is not required, std::atomic may be initialized through their non-default constructors.
