Remarks

You can use this class for better performance than ManualResetEvent when wait times are expected to be very short, and when the event does not cross a process boundary. ManualResetEventSlim uses busy spinning for a short time while it waits for the event to become signaled. When wait times are short, spinning can be much less expensive than waiting by using wait handles. However, if the event does not become signaled within a certain period of time, ManualResetEventSlim resorts to a regular event handle wait.

Note

In .NET Core and .NET 5+, the default spin-waiting duration is short: on the order of 10s of microseconds, depending on platform and processor. If you expect wait times to be much longer than that, you can still use this class instead of ManualResetEvent (perhaps configured with less or no spin-waiting). However, the performance benefit would likely be only marginal.

Constructors

ManualResetEventSlim()

Initializes a new instance of the ManualResetEventSlim class with an initial state of nonsignaled.

ManualResetEventSlim(Boolean, Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the ManualResetEventSlim class with a Boolean value indicating whether to set the initial state to signaled and a specified spin count.

ManualResetEventSlim(Boolean)

Initializes a new instance of the ManualResetEventSlim class with a Boolean value indicating whether to set the initial state to signaled.

Properties

IsSet

Gets whether the event is set.

SpinCount

Gets the number of spin waits that will occur before falling back to a kernel-based wait operation.

WaitHandle

Gets the underlying WaitHandle object for this ManualResetEventSlim.

Methods

Dispose()

Releases all resources used by the current instance of the ManualResetEventSlim class.

Dispose(Boolean)

Releases the unmanaged resources used by the ManualResetEventSlim, and optionally releases the managed resources.

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(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)
Reset()

Sets the state of the event to nonsignaled, which causes threads to block.

Set()

Sets the state of the event to signaled, which allows one or more threads waiting on the event to proceed.

ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
Wait()

Blocks the current thread until the current ManualResetEventSlim is set.

Wait(CancellationToken)

Blocks the current thread until the current ManualResetEventSlim receives a signal, while observing a CancellationToken.

Wait(Int32, CancellationToken)

Blocks the current thread until the current ManualResetEventSlim is set, using a 32-bit signed integer to measure the time interval, while observing a CancellationToken.

Wait(Int32)

Blocks the current thread until the current ManualResetEventSlim is set, using a 32-bit signed integer to measure the time interval.

Wait(TimeSpan, CancellationToken)

Blocks the current thread until the current ManualResetEventSlim is set, using a TimeSpan to measure the time interval, while observing a CancellationToken.

Wait(TimeSpan)

Blocks the current thread until the current ManualResetEventSlim is set, using a TimeSpan to measure the time interval.

Applies to

Thread Safety

All public and protected members of ManualResetEventSlim are thread-safe and may be used concurrently from multiple threads, with the exception of Dispose, which must only be used when all other operations on the ManualResetEventSlim have completed, and Reset, which should only be used when no other threads are accessing the event.
