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

Atomically replaces the current value of the referenced object with the result of std::max of the value and arg. That is, it performs atomic maximum operation. The operation is a read-modify-write operation. Memory is affected according to the value of order.

If T is a pointer type and the pointers point to different complete objects (or subobjects thereof), pointer comparison does not establish a strict weak ordering.

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

[edit] Parameters

arg - the other argument of std::max
order - memory order constraints to enforce

[edit] Return value

The value immediately preceding the effects of this function in the modification order of *this.
