NAME

       al_create_mutex_recursive - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              ALLEGRO_MUTEX *al_create_mutex_recursive(void)

DESCRIPTION

       Create  the mutex object (a mutual exclusion device), with support for “recursive” locking.  That is, the
       mutex will count the number of times it has been locked by the same  thread.   If  the  caller  tries  to
       acquire  a  lock on the mutex when it already holds the lock then the count is incremented.  The mutex is
       only unlocked when the thread releases the lock on the mutex an equal number  of  times,  i.e. the  count
       drops down to zero.
