Initialize the value referenced by target in a thread-safe manner. The value is changed to initializedValue only if the current value is uninitializedValue.

Namespace: CodeJam.Threading
Assembly: CodeJam (in CodeJam.dll) Version: 2.1.0.0

Syntax

C#

public static float Initialize(
	ref float target,
	float initializedValue,
	float uninitializedValue
)

VB

Public Shared Function Initialize ( 
	ByRef target As Single,
	initializedValue As Single,
	uninitializedValue As Single
) As Single

F#

static member Initialize : 
        target : float32 byref * 
        initializedValue : float32 * 
        uninitializedValue : float32 -> float32 

Parameters

 

target

Type: System.Single
Reference to the target location.

initializedValue

Type: System.Single
The value to use if the target is currently uninitialized.

uninitializedValue

Type: System.Single
The uninitialized value.

Return Value

Type: Single
The new value referenced by target. Note that this is nearly always more useful than the usual return from CompareExchange(Single, Single, Single) because it saves another read to target.
