The GetThreadPriorityBoost function returns the priority boost control state of the specified thread.

BOOL GetThreadPriorityBoost(

HANDLE hThread,	// handle to thread
PBOOL pDisablePriorityBoost	// indicates priority boost control state
);

Parameters
hThread

Handle to the thread. This thread must have THREAD_QUERY_INFORMATION access. For more information, see Thread Objects.

pDisablePriorityBoost

Pointer to a Boolean variable that receives the priority boost control state. A value of TRUE indicates that dynamic boosting is disabled. A value of FALSE indicates normal behavior.

Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero. In that case, the Boolean variable pointed to by the pDisablePriorityBoost parameter receives the priority boost control state.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
