#include <nitro/os.h>u32 OS_GetVBlankCount( void );None.
Returns the V-blank counter value.
Obtains the value of the V-Blank counter.
The V-blank counter is incremented with V-blank timing. It is cleared to 0 when the IRQ table is initialized. Once initialized, the counter is incremented whenever a V-blank interrupt occurs. The counter is u32 type; in calculations that use 60 frames per second, it takes about two years for the counter to roll over.
The counter is incremented when the ARM7 bus tries to call the V-blank interrupt handler, and writes to the shared main memory area. Therefore, when V-blank is not included in the IRQ interrupt trigger on the ARM7, or when IME is disabled, the counter does not change unless the part that calls the V-blank interrupt handler is reached. If a V-blank interrupt is permitted on ARM7, the counter is incremented even if the V-blank interrupt handler is not set.
