Not true, I think this should work fine:
#ifdef __cplusplus
#include <atomic>
using namespace std;
#else
#include <stdatomic.h>
#endif
atomic<int> i;
int main()
{
atomic_store(&i, 0);
return atomic_load(&i);
}
The fact it doesn't looks like a problem with libstdc++'s <atomic> not
<stdatomic.h>
I don't think we want to support the _Atomic qualifier in C++.
