Attempts to acquire the lock in a reliable manner, such that even if an exception occurs within the method call, lockTaken
can be examined reliably to determine whether the lock was acquired.

can be examined reliably to determine whether the lock was acquired.
public:
void TryEnter(bool % lockTaken);
public void TryEnter (ref bool lockTaken);
member this.TryEnter : bool -> unit
Public Sub TryEnter (ByRef lockTaken As Boolean)
Parameters
- lockTaken
- Boolean
True if the lock is acquired; otherwise, false. lockTaken
must be initialized to false prior to calling this method.
Exceptions
The lockTaken
argument must be initialized to false prior to calling TryEnter.
Thread ownership tracking is enabled, and the current thread has already acquired this lock.
Remarks
Unlike Enter, TryEnter will not block waiting for the lock to be available. If the lock is not available when TryEnter is called, it will return immediately without any further spinning.

public:
void TryEnter(int millisecondsTimeout, bool % lockTaken);
public void TryEnter (int millisecondsTimeout, ref bool lockTaken);
member this.TryEnter : int * bool -> unit
Public Sub TryEnter (millisecondsTimeout As Integer, ByRef lockTaken As Boolean)
Parameters
- millisecondsTimeout
- Int32
The number of milliseconds to wait, or Infinite (-1) to wait indefinitely.
- lockTaken
- Boolean
True if the lock is acquired; otherwise, false. lockTaken
must be initialized to false prior to calling this method.
Exceptions
millisecondsTimeout
is a negative number other than -1, which represents an infinite time-out.
The lockTaken
argument must be initialized to false prior to calling TryEnter.
Thread ownership tracking is enabled, and the current thread has already acquired this lock.
Remarks
Unlike Enter, TryEnter will not block indefinitely waiting for the lock to be available. It will block until either the lock is available or until the millisecondsTimeout
has expired.

public:
void TryEnter(TimeSpan timeout, bool % lockTaken);
public void TryEnter (TimeSpan timeout, ref bool lockTaken);
member this.TryEnter : TimeSpan * bool -> unit
Public Sub TryEnter (timeout As TimeSpan, ByRef lockTaken As Boolean)
Parameters
- timeout
- TimeSpan
A TimeSpan that represents the number of milliseconds to wait, or a TimeSpan that represents -1 milliseconds to wait indefinitely.
- lockTaken
- Boolean
True if the lock is acquired; otherwise, false. lockTaken
must be initialized to false prior to calling this method.
Exceptions
timeout
is a negative number other than -1 milliseconds, which represents an infinite time-out -or- timeout is greater than Int32.MaxValue milliseconds.
The lockTaken
argument must be initialized to false prior to calling TryEnter.
Thread ownership tracking is enabled, and the current thread has already acquired this lock.
Remarks
Unlike Enter, TryEnter will not block indefinitely waiting for the lock to be available. It will block until either the lock is available or until the timeout
has expired.
