About the AutoResetEvent

[Anonymous]

Dear marcF
My teacher tell me in the .net framework2.0

If I use AutoResetEvent like this:

AutoResetEvent  returnWaitSignal=new AutoResetEvent();
if (!returnWaitSignal.WaitOne(returnPacketTimeOutMilliSeconds))
            {
                RemoveIncomingPacketHandler(expectedReturnPacketTypeStr, SendReceiveDelegate);
                throw new ExpectedReturnTimeoutException("Timeout occurred after " + returnPacketTimeOutMilliSeconds.ToString() + "ms waiting for response packet of type '" + expectedReturnPacketTypeStr + "'.");
            }

should change the code to:

AutoResetEvent  returnWaitSignal=new AutoResetEvent();
 if (!returnWaitSignal.WaitOne(returnPacketTimeOutMilliSeconds,true))
            {
                RemoveIncomingPacketHandler(expectedReturnPacketTypeStr, SendReceiveDelegate);
                throw new ExpectedReturnTimeoutException("Timeout occurred after " + returnPacketTimeOutMilliSeconds.ToString() + "ms waiting for response packet of type '" + expectedReturnPacketTypeStr + "'.");
            }

because in .net framework 2.0 the waitone method has some problem when use only one paramter

I test it in my computer .the System is window 2003

Your teacher is correct, here is a good reference – http://blog.darrenstokes.com/2009/03/30/watch-out-for-those-waitone-overloads-when-you-need-backwards-compatibility/

To be honest I have never heard of this before and the above article does not make it clear whether the issue is automatically resolved at compile time. It seems like a relatively easy fix, I’ll add a bug report for it and will fix in the future.

Regards,

I’ve created a bug report for this issue – https://bitbucket.org/MarcF/networkcomms.net/issue/48/net2-waitone-override-missing. We should be able to resolve this for the next release.

Marc
