SDL_GetGDKTaskQueue(3)

✨ SDL_GetGDKTaskQueue ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the SDL3 FUNCTIONS corner of the man pages, page one of one, and it's about SDL_GetGDKTaskQueue — the little function that hands you a reference to the global async task queue handle for GDK, and initializes it for you if it needs to. 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

SDL_GetGDKTaskQueue — gets a reference to the global async task queue handle for GDK, initializing if needed. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <SDL3/SDL_system.h>

bool SDL_GetGDKTaskQueue(XTaskQueueHandle *outTaskQueue);

look at her. one include, one call, no drama. ✨

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the thing, bestie — this gives you a reference to the global async task queue handle for GDK, and it'll initialize it if it hasn't been already. convenient? yes. free real estate? no. 🙈

IMPORTANT: once you are done with the task queue, you should call XTaskQueueCloseHandle to reduce the reference count, because if you don't, you're gonna have a resource leak and that is not the main character energy we're going for. 😭

---

🧚 FUNCTION PARAMETERS 🧚

• outTaskQueue — a pointer to be filled in with task queue handle. it's an out-param, so she's getting written into, not read from. 🫶

---

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

Returns true on success or false on failure. and if it fails? call SDL_GetError() for more information, because girl, you deserve to know what went wrong. 💀

---

👑 AVAILABILITY 👑

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0. so if you're on something older... nope, not her. 💜
