sdlTryLockRwLockForReading function

bool sdlTryLockRwLockForReading(Pointer<NativeType> arg0, Pointer<NativeType> arg1)

Try to lock a read/write lock for reading without blocking.

This works just like SDL_LockRWLockForReading(), but if the rwlock is not available, then this function returns false immediately.

This technique is useful if you need access to a resource but don't want to wait for it, and will return to it to try again later.

Trying to lock for read-only access can succeed if other threads are holding read-only locks, as this won't prevent access.

This function returns true if passed a NULL rwlock.

\param rwlock the rwlock to try to lock. \returns true on success, false if the lock would block.

\since This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
