Hi, we have

template <class U>
inline bool ReadWithBarrier(const volatile U& b)
{
	volatile bool tmp = b;
	ReadMemoryBarrier();
	return tmp;
}

but use it as it would return an int too, like in

inline int  AtomicRead(const volatile Atomic& t)      { return ReadWithBarrier(t); }

So I would suggest to replace in ReadWithBarrier the bool with the U template parameter (in tmp var and return type).

Cheers, Hans.

Yes, already done. You caught us in the process Smile

BTW, final version removes second volatile too -> leads to more optimal but still correct code on both GCC and MSC (7.1, 8, 9).
