SDL_ThreadID(3)

💖 SDL_ThreadID 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the SDL API Reference — this one's a tiny little page from the SDL manual, section 3, and it's about finding out who you are. no like, literally which thread you are. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_ThreadID — get the 32-bit thread identifier for the current thread. that's it. that's the whole thing. and honestly? iconic for being so simple. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include "SDL.h"
#include "SDL_thread.h"

Uint32 SDL_ThreadID(void)

yes bestie, both headers. both of them. she contains multitudes. 🎀

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Get the 32-bit thread identifier for the current thread.

that's the entire description, no notes, no caveats, no gotchas, nothing. you call her, she hands you a Uint32 that tells you which thread is currently running, and you go about your day. main character energy fr fr. ✨

lowkey the vibe check here: this is your thread's ID, not some other thread's. the current one. the one you're standing in right now. iykyk. 💀

🫶 a lil sign-off 🫶
