Description bile 2008-11-26 08:06:10 UTC 
Over a year ago atomic integer functions were discussed and agreed would be a nice addition to 1.3. I threw together a patch which covered the main platforms I had some access to at the time.

I've not the time to check to see if it will apply cleanly currently. In the least the code can be used as a base.

Thanks!  I'm just waiting on a code release so I can include this in SDL 1.3.

Bob has implemented the atomic operations API.  Bob, can you review this patch and see if there's anything here that benefits us?

Thanks!

Bob actually used this as the basis for his work.  Thanks!
