NAME

       SDL_TryLockRWLockForWriting - Try to lock a read/write lock _for writing_ without blocking.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <SDL3/SDL_mutex.h>

       bool SDL_TryLockRWLockForWriting(SDL_RWLock *rwlock);

DESCRIPTION

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

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

       It is illegal for the owning thread to lock an already-locked rwlock for writing (read-only may be locked
       recursively, writing can not). Doing so results in undefined behavior.

       It is illegal to request a write lock from a thread that already holds a read-only lock. Doing so results
       in undefined behavior. Unlock the read-only lock before requesting a write lock.

       This function returns true if passed a NULL rwlock.

FUNCTION PARAMETERS

       rwlock the rwlock to try to lock.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns true on success, false if the lock would block.

AVAILABILITY

       This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
