NAME
       al_get_thread_should_stop - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              bool al_get_thread_should_stop(ALLEGRO_THREAD *thread)


DESCRIPTION
       Check if another thread is waiting for thread to stop.  Threads which
       run in a loop should check this periodically and act on it when
       convenient.

       Returns true if another thread has called al_join_thread(3) or
       al_set_thread_should_stop(3) on this thread.

SEE ALSO
       al_join_thread(3), al_set_thread_should_stop(3).

              Note: We don't support forceful killing of threads.
