Syntax for Declar<strong>in</strong>g Atomic Objects<br />
A <strong>new</strong> type qualifier: _Atomic.<br />
The o<strong>the</strong>r type qualifiers are: const, volatile, restrict.<br />
Examples:<br />
_Atomic <strong>in</strong>t a; // atomic <strong>in</strong>t<br />
<strong>in</strong>t* _Atomic b; // atomic po<strong>in</strong>ter<br />
_Atomic <strong>in</strong>t* c; // po<strong>in</strong>ter to atomic <strong>in</strong>t<br />
_Atomic <strong>in</strong>t* _Atomic c; // atomic po<strong>in</strong>ter to atomic <strong>in</strong>t<br />
_Atomic struct { <strong>in</strong>t d; } e; // atomic struct<br />
In C++ it’s written as atomic a.<br />
For easier port<strong>in</strong>g C allows: _Atomic (type-name)<br />
