Syntax

public class RTSemaphore : RTWaitHandle

Public Class RTSemaphore
	Inherits RTWaitHandle

public ref class RTSemaphore : public RTWaitHandle

type RTSemaphore =

        inherit RTWaitHandle
    end

The RTSemaphore type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	RTSemaphore(Int32, Int32)	Initializes a new instance of the RTSemaphore class, specifying the maximum number of concurrent entries, and optionally reserving some entries for the calling thread.
	RTSemaphore(Int32, Int32, String)	Initializes a new instance of the RTSemaphore class, specifying the maximum number of concurrent entries, optionally reserving some entries for the calling thread, and optionally specifying the name of a system semaphore object.
	RTSemaphore(Int32, Int32, String, Boolean)	Initializes a new instance of the RTSemaphore class, specifying the maximum number of concurrent entries, optionally reserving some entries for the calling thread, optionally specifying the name of a system semaphore object, and specifying an out parameter that indicates whether a new system object was created.

Properties

	Name	Description
	SafeWaitHandle	Gets or sets the native operating system handle. (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	Close	Releases all resources held by the current RTSafeWaitHandle. (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)
	Dispose	Releases all of the resources used by the RTWaitHandle. (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)
	Dispose(Boolean)	Releases the unmanaged resources used by the RTWaitHandle, and optionally releases the managed resources. (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)
	OpenExisting	Opens an existing named semaphore.
	Release	Exits the semaphore, returning the previous count.
	Release(Int32)	Exits the semaphore, returning the previous count.
	WaitOne	When overridden in a derived class, blocks the current thread until the current WaitHandle receives a signal. (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)
	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 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. (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)
	WaitOne(TimeSpan, Boolean)	Blocks the current thread until the current System.Threading.WaitHandle receives a signal. (Inherited from RTWaitHandle.)
