Class AtomicReference<T>

Implementation of the java.concurrent.util AtomicReference type.

Uses Volatile internally to enforce ordering of writes without any explicit locking. .NET's strong memory on write guarantees might already enforce this ordering, but the addition of the Volatile guarantees it.
