The std::atomic::compare_exchange_weak function in C++ is used to perform an atomic compare-and-swap operation. It checks if the value held by the atomic object is equal to a specified expected value. If it is, the function atomically swaps the value with a new value. The weak version of this function may fail spuriously, meaning it may return false even if the expected value matches the value held by the atomic object. This function provides a way to perform atomic operations on shared data without the need for locks, ensuring thread-safety in concurrent programming.
