Hi,
I'm interesting in implementing a non-blocking queue. My
thought is to use a fixed-size array, and increment back of
the queue with a integer. I was thinking I could make this
non-blocking via an atomic increment operation before
assigning the pushed value onto the queue. So, my question
is: How would you do an atomic increment in a
cross-platform way in D?
Thanks!

I think you could use
http://dlang.org/phobos/core_atomic.html, maybe?
I didn't see a way to get an an increment operation. atomicOp
doesn't seem to offer unitary operations.

atomicOp!("+=")(value, 1);
Should work, I believe. Or is that not what you meant?
