It might be safe, but I think it's more clear just to pass in the expected value (since we always ignore the return value, it doesn't much matter anyway). I think it's better to use OSAtomicCompareAndSwap32Barrier() in all cases, though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
