zmq_atomic_counter_value(3) =========================== NAME ---- zmq_atomic_counter_value - return value of atomic counter SYNOPSIS -------- *int zmq_atomic_counter_value (void *counter);* DESCRIPTION ----------- The _zmq_atomic_counter_value_ function returns the value of an atomic counter created by _zmq_atomic_counter_new()_. This function uses platform specific atomic operations. RETURN VALUE ------------ The _zmq_atomic_counter_value()_ function returns the value of the atomic counter. If _counter_ does not point to an atomic counter created by _zmq_atomic_counter_new()_, the behaviour is undefined. EXAMPLE ------- .Test code for atomic counters ---- void *counter = zmq_atomic_counter_new (); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_value (counter) == 0); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_inc (counter) == 0); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_inc (counter) == 1); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_inc (counter) == 2); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_value (counter) == 3); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_dec (counter) == 1); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_dec (counter) == 1); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_dec (counter) == 0); zmq_atomic_counter_set (counter, 2); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_dec (counter) == 1); assert (zmq_atomic_counter_dec (counter) == 0); zmq_atomic_counter_destroy (&counter); return 0; ---- SEE ALSO -------- linkzmq:zmq_atomic_counter_new[3] linkzmq:zmq_atomic_counter_set[3] linkzmq:zmq_atomic_counter_inc[3] linkzmq:zmq_atomic_counter_dec[3] linkzmq:zmq_atomic_counter_destroy[3] AUTHORS ------- This page was written by the 0MQ community.
