MIX_UnlockMixer(3) SDL_mixer3 FUNCTIONS MIX_UnlockMixer(3)

NAME

MIX_UnlockMixer - Unlock a mixer previously locked by a call to MIX_LockMixer().

SYNOPSIS

#include <SDL3_mixer/SDL_mixer.h>
void MIX_UnlockMixer(MIX_Mixer *mixer);

DESCRIPTION

While locked, the mixer will not be able to mix more audio or change its internal state another thread. Those other threads will block until the mixer is unlocked again.

Under the hood, this function calls SDL_LockMutex(), so all the same rules apply: the lock can be recursive, it must be unlocked the same number of times from the same thread that locked it, etc.

Unlocking a NULL mixer is a safe no-op.

FUNCTION PARAMETERS

the mixer to unlock. May be NULL.

THREAD SAFETY

This call must be paired with a previous MIX_LockMixer call on the same thread.

AVAILABILITY

This function is available since SDL_mixer 3.0.0.
