atomicIntCompareAndExchangeFull

fnbool atomicIntCompareAndExchangeFull(ref int atomic, int oldval, int newval, out int preval)

Compares atomic to oldval and, if equal, sets it to newval. If atomic was not equal to oldval then no change occurs. In any case the value of atomic before this operation is stored in preval.

This compare and exchange is done atomically.

Think of this operation as an atomic version of { *preval = *atomic; if (*atomic == oldval) { *atomic = newval; return TRUE; } else return FALSE; }.

This call acts as a full compiler and hardware memory barrier.

Parameters

`atomic`	a pointer to a #gint or #guint
`oldval`	the value to compare with
`newval`	the value to conditionally replace with
`preval`	the contents of atomic before this operation

Returns

true if the exchange took place
