_InterlockedDecrement (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

  • Article

1/5/2010

This function performs an atomic addition of a decrement value to an addend variable. The function prevents more than one thread from using the same variable simultaneously.

Syntax

InterlockedDecrement(
  PLONG Addend
);

Parameters

  • Addend
    [in] Value to be decremented.

Return Values

Result of binary arithmetic.

Remarks

The interlocked functions provide a simple mechanism for synchronizing access to a variable that is shared by multiple threads. The threads of different processes can use this mechanism if the variable is in shared memory.

Requirements

Architecture MIPS 32, MIPS IV, MIPS16, MIPSII, MIPSIII
Header winnt.h
Routine _InterlockedDecrement
