Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Close |
Releases all resources held by the current RTSafeWaitHandle.
(Inherited from RTWaitHandle.) |
| Dispose |

(Inherited from RTWaitHandle.) |
 | Dispose(Boolean) |
Releases the unmanaged resources used
by the RTWaitHandle, and optionally releases the managed resources.
(Inherited from RTWaitHandle.) |
| Equals | (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize |
Finalizes the RTWaitHandle instance.
(Inherited from RTWaitHandle.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the (Inherited from Type of the current instance.Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current (Inherited from Object.Object.) |
 | OpenExisting |
Opens an existing named semaphore.
|
| Release |
Exits the semaphore, returning the previous count.
|
| Release(Int32) |
Exits the semaphore, returning the previous count.
|
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| WaitOne |
When overridden in a derived class, blocks the current thread until the current (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)WaitHandle receives a signal.
|
| WaitOne(Int32) |
Blocks the current thread until the current System.Threading.WaitHandle receives
a signal.
(Inherited from RTWaitHandle.) |
| WaitOne(TimeSpan) |
Blocks the current thread until the current System.Threading.WaitHandle receives
a signal.
(Inherited from RTWaitHandle.) |
| WaitOne(Int32, Boolean) |
When overridden in a derived class, blocks the current thread until the current (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)WaitHandle receives a signal, using 32-bit signed integer to measure the time interval and specifying whether to exit the synchronization domain before the wait.
|
| WaitOne(TimeSpan, Boolean) |
Blocks the current thread until the current System.Threading.WaitHandle receives
a signal.
(Inherited from RTWaitHandle.) |
