Hi All!

I would like to use OSAtomicCompareAndSwap32 and OSAtomicOr32Orig using the 
same variable. Unfortunately, the first requires a signed int, the other an 
unsigned int.

How can I get this to work?


Example:


enum {
        State_Canceling = 1U << 7;
};

int _state; // would like to have an uint32_t


int new_state = OSAtomicCompareAndSwap32(State_0, State_1, &_state);
…


if (OSAtomicOr32Orig(State_Canceling, &_state) != 0) {
        // canceling
}


The solution would be a "OSAtomicCompareAndSwapU32", or is it save to pass a 
signed int where an unsigned int is required, considering strong Alias rules 
and whatever optimizations the compiler applies?


Thanks for tips!
