# XTaskQueueGetCurrentProcessTaskQueue

Obtains a handle to the process task queue, or nullptr if there is no process task queue.

## Syntax

```cpp theme={null}
bool XTaskQueueGetCurrentProcessTaskQueue(  
         XTaskQueueHandle* queue  
)  
```

### Parameters

*queue*   \_Out\_\
Type: XTaskQueueHandle\*

Handle to the process task queue.

### Return value

Type: bool

Returns true if there is a process task queue available, or false otherwise.

## Remarks

<Note>This function isn't safe to call on a time-sensitive thread. For more information, see [Time-sensitive threads](https://learn.microsoft.com/gaming/gdk/docs/gdk-dev/console-dev/overviews/threads/time-sensitive-threads).</Note>

By default, there is a process task queue that uses the thread pool for both work and completion ports. You can replace the default process task queue by calling [XTaskQueueSetCurrentProcessTaskQueue](/reference/system/xtaskqueue/functions/xtaskqueuesetcurrentprocesstaskqueue), and you can prevent callers using the process task queue by calling [XTaskQueueSetCurrentProcessTaskQueue](/reference/system/xtaskqueue/functions/xtaskqueuesetcurrentprocesstaskqueue) with a null queue parameter.

Use [XTaskQueueCloseHandle](/reference/system/xtaskqueue/functions/xtaskqueueclosehandle) to close handle returned from this API.

## Requirements

**Header:** XTaskQueue.h

**Library:** xgameruntime.lib

**Supported platforms:** Windows, XBOX One family consoles and XBOX Series consoles
