atomicPointerSet
fn
void atomicPointerSet(void * atomic, void * newval = null)Sets the value of atomic to newval.
This call acts as a full compiler and hardware memory barrier (after the set).
While atomic has a volatile qualifier, this is a historical artifact and the pointer passed to it should not be volatile.
Parameters
atomic | a pointer to a #gpointer-sized value |
newval | a new value to store |
