Thread.MemoryBarrier Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Threading

Assembly:

System.Threading.Thread.dll

Source:

Thread.cs

Synchronizes memory access as follows: The processor executing the current thread cannot reorder instructions in such a way that memory accesses prior to the call to MemoryBarrier() execute after memory accesses that follow the call to MemoryBarrier().

public:
 static void MemoryBarrier();

public static void MemoryBarrier ();

static member MemoryBarrier : unit -> unit

Public Shared Sub MemoryBarrier ()

Remarks

For most purposes, the C# lock statement, the Visual Basic SyncLock statement, or the Monitor class provide easier ways to synchronize data.
