IHostSyncManager Interface

Provides methods that allow the common language runtime (CLR) to create synchronization primitives by calling the host instead of using the Win32 synchronization functions.

Methods

Method	Description
CreateAutoEvent Method	Creates an auto-reset event object.
CreateCrst Method	Creates a critical section object for synchronization.
CreateCrstWithSpinCount Method	Creates a critical section object with spin count for synchronization.
CreateManualEvent Method	Creates a manual-reset event object.
CreateMonitorEvent Method	Creates a monitored auto-reset event object.
CreateRWLockReaderEvent Method	Creates a manual-reset event object for the implementation of a reader lock.
CreateRWLockWriterEvent Method	Creates an auto-reset event object for the implementation of a writer lock.
CreateSemaphore Method	Creates an IHostSemaphore object for the CLR to use as a semaphore for wait events.
SetCLRSyncManager Method	Sets the ICLRSyncManager instance to associate with the current IHostSyncManager instance.

Remarks

The CLR discovers the host's implementation of IHostSyncManager by calling the IHostControl::GetHostManager method with an IID of IID_IHostSyncManager.
