Mersenne Twister (mt19937ar.c) not returning random number

I tried searching for examples on how to use the mt19937ar.c variant of Mersenne Twister but most come up in C++ and others seem to use mtwist.h.

My code below:

int getRandomNum(void)
{
    int i;
    i = (int) genrand_int32();
    return i;
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    ...
    int m = getRandomNum();
    printf("m = %d", m);
    ...
    return 0;
}

simply spits out the same integer over and over again. Seems like a seeding issue, but every implementation that I've found of getting a random number with mt19937 simply just invokes genrand_int32(). Am I doing this incorrectly?
