I have been searching for some standard library of this type for some time. Eventually I wrote my own primitives, taking ideas from tbb and other resources on the web. I also have some containers based on atomics, like non-blocking stacks. I think an atomic-ops library would be a great addition to Boost. If that was available, I would happily throw away all my own code. Best regards, M Sergei Politov wrote:

Hi,

I would like to known state of atomic (class/operations) implementation in boost. There are several threads that contains references to atomics, but I cannot find the state of this issue. May be I've overlooked something.

I would like to known the following: 1) Is there defined interface for atomics? Where is it if present? 2) What is the state of this work?

Currently I use my own implementation of atomic class. It has interface similar to atomic class from intel tbb (also it contains some ideas from tbb, but AFAIK ideas are not under GPL license). Now it is tested on MSVC 9.0 32-bit, and GCC 4.2.4 under Gentoo linux (both 32 and 64-bit). I can boostify and prepare it for review, if there is no such work already in progress.
