RegisteredWaitHandle Class

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Represents a handle that has been registered when calling RegisterWaitForSingleObject. This class cannot be inherited.

Syntax

'Declaration
<ComVisibleAttribute(True)> _
Public NotInheritable Class RegisteredWaitHandle

[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public sealed class RegisteredWaitHandle

The RegisteredWaitHandle type exposes the following members.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Unregister	Cancels a registered wait operation issued by the RegisterWaitForSingleObject method.

Examples

The following example shows how to use a RegisteredWaitHandle to determine why a callback method is called, and how to unregister a task if the callback occurred because the wait handle was signaled.

The example also shows how to use the RegisterWaitForSingleObject method to execute a specified callback method when a specified wait handle is signaled. In this example, the callback method is WaitProc, and the wait handle is an AutoResetEvent.

The example defines a TaskInfo class to hold the information that is passed to the callback when it executes. The example creates a TaskInfo object and assigns it some string data. The RegisteredWaitHandle that is returned by the RegisterWaitForSingleObject method is assigned to the Handle field of the TaskInfo object so that the callback method has access to the RegisteredWaitHandle.

In addition to specifying TaskInfo as the object to pass to the callback method, the call to the RegisterWaitForSingleObject method specifies the AutoResetEvent that the task will wait for, a WaitOrTimerCallback delegate that represents the WaitProc callback method, a one-second time-out interval, and multiple callbacks.

When the main thread signals the AutoResetEvent by calling its Set method, the WaitOrTimerCallback delegate is invoked. The WaitProc method tests RegisteredWaitHandle to determine whether a time-out occurred. If the callback was invoked because the wait handle was signaled, the WaitProc method unregisters the RegisteredWaitHandle, stopping additional callbacks. In the case of a time-out, the task continues to wait.

The WaitProc method displays its output in a TextBlock on the UI thread. To access the TextBlock from the callback thread, the WaitProc method uses the Dispatcher property to obtain a Dispatcher object for the TextBlock, and then uses the Dispatcher.BeginInvoke method to make the cross-thread call.
