The Monitor type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
Enter(Object) | Acquires an exclusive lock on the specified object. |
|
Enter(Object, Boolean%) | Acquires an exclusive lock on the specified object, and atomically sets a value that indicates whether the lock was taken. |
|
Exit | Releases an exclusive lock on the specified object. |
|
Pulse | Notifies a thread in the waiting queue of a change in the locked object's state. |
|
PulseAll | Notifies all waiting threads of a change in the object's state. |
|
TryEnter(Object) | Attempts to acquire an exclusive lock on the specified object. |
|
TryEnter(Object, Boolean%) | Attempts to acquire an exclusive lock on the specified object, and atomically sets a value that indicates whether the lock was taken. |
|
TryEnter(Object, Int32) | Attempts, for the specified number of milliseconds, to acquire an exclusive lock on the specified object. |
|
TryEnter(Object, TimeSpan) | Attempts, for the specified amount of time, to acquire an exclusive lock on the specified object. |
|
TryEnter(Object, Int32, Boolean%) | Attempts, for the specified number of milliseconds, to acquire an exclusive lock on the specified object, and atomically sets a value that indicates whether the lock was taken. |
|
TryEnter(Object, TimeSpan, Boolean%) | Attempts, for the specified amount of time, to acquire an exclusive lock on the specified object, and atomically sets a value that indicates whether the lock was taken. |
|
Wait(Object) | Releases the lock on an object and blocks the current thread until it reacquires the lock. |
|
Wait(Object, Int32) | Releases the lock on an object and blocks the current thread until it reacquires the lock. If the specified time-out interval elapses, the thread enters the ready queue. |
|
Wait(Object, TimeSpan) | Releases the lock on an object and blocks the current thread until it reacquires the lock. If the specified time-out interval elapses, the thread enters the ready queue. |
|
Wait(Object, Int32, Boolean) | Releases the lock on an object and blocks the current thread until it reacquires the lock. If the specified time-out interval elapses, the thread enters the ready queue. This method also specifies whether the synchronization domain for the context (if in a synchronized context) is exited before the wait and reacquired afterward. |
|
Wait(Object, TimeSpan, Boolean) | Releases the lock on an object and blocks the current thread until it reacquires the lock. If the specified time-out interval elapses, the thread enters the ready queue. Optionally exits the synchronization domain for the synchronized context before the wait and reacquires the domain afterward. |
