NAME

SDL_CreateMutex - Create a new mutex.

HEADER FILE

Defined in SDL3/SDL_mutex.h

SYNOPSIS

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

SDL_Mutex * SDL_CreateMutex(void);

DESCRIPTION

All newly-created mutexes begin in the _unlocked_ state.

Calls to SDL_LockMutex () will not return while the mutex is locked by another thread. See SDL_TryLockMutex () to attempt to lock without blocking.

SDL mutexes are reentrant.

RETURN VALUE

( SDL_Mutex
*) Returns the initialized and unlocked mutex or NULL on failure; call SDL_GetError () for more information.

AVAILABILITY

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
