ManualResetEvent Constructor

[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

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

Namespace:  System.Threading
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub New ( _
    initialState As Boolean _
)

public ManualResetEvent(
    bool initialState
)

public:
ManualResetEvent(
    bool initialState
)

new : 
        initialState:bool -> ManualResetEvent

public function ManualResetEvent(
    initialState : boolean
)

Parameters

• initialState
  Type: System. . :: . .Boolean
  true to set the initial state signaled; false to set the initial state to nonsignaled.

Remarks

If the initial state of a ManualResetEvent is signaled (that is, if it is created by passing true for initialState), threads that wait on the ManualResetEvent do not block. If the initial state is nonsignaled, threads block until the Set method is called.
