ATOMICCOUNTERINCREME(3G)

💖 ATOMICCOUNTERINCREME(3G) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the 3G corner of the manual, where we talk about GLSL's atomic counter functions. yes the header of this page literally says [FIXME: manual] — we don't talk about that 🙈. anyway. sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's get into it.

---

✨ NAME ✨

atomicCounterIncrement — she atomically increments a counter and hands you back the value it had before she touched it. the way that's literally the whole personality 🫶

---

🌸 DECLARATION 🌸

uint atomicCounterIncrement(atomic_uint c);

that's it. that's the whole signature. iconic.

---

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• c — the handle to the atomic counter you wanna increment. give her the counter, she does the thing 💅

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so atomicCounterIncrement atomically increments the value of the atomic counter c, and then returns its prior value. like, the value from before the increment. she's giving time-traveler energy honestly. no cap, she tells you where you were, not where you're going ✨

👑 VERSION SUPPORT 👑

which versions of the OpenGL Shading Language are vibing with this function? let's do a vibe check 🌈

• OpenGL Shading Language 1.10 — nope, not here 💀
• OpenGL Shading Language 1.20 — nope
• OpenGL Shading Language 1.30 — nope
• OpenGL Shading Language 1.40 — nope
• OpenGL Shading Language 1.50 — nope
• OpenGL Shading Language 3.30 — nope
• OpenGL Shading Language 4.00 — nope
• OpenGL Shading Language 4.10 — nope
• OpenGL Shading Language 4.20 — ✔ yes bestie!!
• OpenGL Shading Language 4.30 — ✔
• OpenGL Shading Language 4.40 — ✔
• OpenGL Shading Language 4.50 — ✔

so basically she showed up in 4.20 and never left. main character energy since day one 💅✨

and that's a wrap, bestie 🎀 this lil page came from [FIXME: source], dated 01/03/2018, and she lives at ATOMICCOUNTERINCREME(3G). go forth and increment atomically, you absolute legend 👑💜
