util_gthread_id


Description:


[ Version ( since = "2.32" ) ]
public uint64 util_gthread_id (Thread thread)

Returns a 64-bit integer hopefully uniquely identifying the thread.

To be used in debugging output and logging only. The returned value is just a cast of a pointer to the 64-bit integer.

There is no guarantee that calling util_gthread_id on one thread first and later after that thread has dies on another won't return the same integer.

On Linux and Win32, known to really return a unique id for each thread existing at a certain time. No guarantee that ids won't be reused after a thread has terminated, though.

Parameters:

thread

A Thread pointer

Returns:

A 64-bit integer.
