WakeConditionVariable function
Applies to: desktop apps | Metro style apps
Wake a single thread waiting on the specified condition variable.
Syntax
VOID WINAPI WakeConditionVariable( __inout PCONDITION_VARIABLE ConditionVariable );
Parameters
- ConditionVariable [in, out]
-
A pointer to the condition variable.
Return value
This function does not return a value.
Remarks
The WakeAllConditionVariable wakes all waiting threads while the WakeConditionVariable wakes only a single thread. Waking one thread is similar to setting an auto-reset event, while waking all threads is similar to pulsing a manual reset event but more reliable (see PulseEvent for details).
