Edit Question
Title
Body
Let's say that a class has a public int counter field that is accessed by multiple threads. This int is only incremented or decremented. To increment this field, which approach should be used, and why? lock(this.locker) this.counter++; , Interlocked.Increment(ref this.counter); , Change the access modifier of counter to public volatile . Now that I've discovered volatile , I've been removing many lock statements and the use of Interlocked . But is there a reason not to do this?
