int SDL_GDKGetTaskQueue(XTaskQueueHandle * outTaskQueue);
```

## Function Parameters

| XTaskQueueHandle * | **outTaskQueue** | a pointer to be filled in with task queue handle. |

## Return Value

(int) Returns 0 if success, -1 if any error occurs.

XTaskQueueCloseHandle to reduce the reference count to avoid a resource
leak.
