std::atomic_ref::fetch_add - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

Provided only when T is an arithmetic type other than cv bool or a pointer-to-object type

Atomically replaces the current value referenced by *_[ptr](../atomic%5Fref.html#ptr "cpp/atomic/atomic ref")_ with the result of arithmetic addition of the value and arg. This operation is a read-modify-write operation. Memory is affected according to the value of order.

This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_const_v<T> is false.

[edit] Parameters

arg - the other argument of arithmetic addition
order - memory order constraints to enforce

[edit] Return value

The value referenced by *_[ptr](../atomic%5Fref.html#ptr "cpp/atomic/atomic ref")_, immediately preceding the effects of this function.
