std::atomic_load, std::atomic_load_explicit

Defined in header <atomic>
(1) (since C++11)
template< class T >
T atomic_load( const std::atomic<T>* obj ) noexcept;
template< class T >
T atomic_load( const volatile std::atomic<T>* obj ) noexcept;
(2) (since C++11)
template< class T >
T atomic_load_explicit( const std::atomic<T>* obj, 
                        std::memory_order order ) noexcept;
template< class T >
T atomic_load_explicit( const volatile std::atomic<T>* obj, 
                        std::memory_order order ) noexcept;
1) Atomically obtains the value pointed to by obj as if by obj->load()
2) Atomically obtains the value pointed to by obj as if by obj->load(order)

Parameters

obj - pointer to the atomic object to modify
order - the memory synchronization ordering for this operation: only std::memory_order_relaxed, std::memory_order_consume, std::memory_order_acquire and std::memory_order_seq_cst are permitted.

Return value

The value that is held by the atomic object pointed to by obj.
