Thread Synchronization in C#
Synchronize access to resources in multithreaded applications using Synchronization.
Mutex to Synchronize Threads
A mutex can be used to synchronize threads across processes. Use it to prevent the simultaneous execution of a block of code by more than one thread at a time.
C# lock statement is used to ensure that a block of code runs without interruption by other threads. A Mutual-exclusion lock is obtained for a given object for the duration of the code block.
A lock statement gets an object as an argument. The parameter given to the “lock” should be an object based on a reference type −
public class Demo {
private System.Object myLock = new System.Object();
public void Process() {
lock (myLock) {
}
}
}The Mutex class in C# is a synchronization primitive that can also be used for interprocess synchronization.
Let us see how to create a new Mutex −
private static Mutex m = new Mutex();
