NAME

SDL_SemWait - Lock a semaphore and suspend the thread if the semaphore value is zero.  

SYNOPSIS

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

int SDL_SemWait(SDL_sem *sem);  

DESCRIPTION

SDL_SemWait() suspends the calling thread until either the semaphore pointed to by sem has a positive value, the call is interrupted by a signal or error. If the call is successful it will atomically decrement the semaphore value.

After SDL_SemWait() is successful, the semaphore can be released and its count atomically incremented by a successful call to SDL_SemPost.  

RETURN VALUE

Returns 0 if successful or -1 if there was an error (leaving the semaphore unchanged).  

EXAMPLES

if (SDL_SemWait(my_sem) == -1) {
        return WAIT_FAILED;
}

...

SDL_SemPost(my_sem);
