Thread safety and string

Title: Thread safety and string





Dang outlook - I don't *want* it to send html.  There was a good article on atomic integer operations in 
"Visual C++ Developer, August 1998 - John M. Dlugosz"


I have atomic integer and lock implementations for Wintel I'm happy to share, but they are decidedly platform specific.


Outlook *says* this message is plain text...

It is thread safe if an adequate definition for the atomic opeartions
would be provided.  Nobody cares so far for this.

If you don't want your mail to be thrown away immediately don't send
