Destroy a mutex created with SDL_CreateMutex().

Synopsis

Description

While it is safe to destroy a mutex that is _unlocked_, it is not safe to attempt to destroy a locked mutex, and may result in undefined behavior depending on the platform.

Function Parameters

mutex

the mutex to destroy.

Availability
