EXTShaderAtomicFloat (LWJGL 3.3.1 - Vulkan)

java.lang.Object
- org.lwjgl.vulkan.EXTShaderAtomicFloat

```
public final class EXTShaderAtomicFloat
extends java.lang.Object
```
This extension allows a shader to contain floating-point atomic operations on buffer, workgroup, and image memory. It also advertises the SPIR-V AtomicFloat32AddEXT and AtomicFloat64AddEXT capabilities that allows atomic addition on floating-points numbers. The supported operations include OpAtomicFAddEXT, OpAtomicExchange, OpAtomicLoad and OpAtomicStore.
