What is the Mutex class in C#?
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();
Let us now see how to initialize a new instance of the Mutex class with a Boolean value.
private static Mutex m = new Mutex(true);
Now let us see how to initialize a new instance of the Mutex class with a Boolean value and the name of the Mutex.
Example
using System;
using System.Threading;
public class Demo {
public static void Main() {
Mutex mt = new Mutex(false, "NewMutex");
Console.WriteLine("Waiting for the Mutex.");
mt.WaitOne();
Console.WriteLine("Owner of the mutex. " + "ENTER is to be pressed to release the mutexand exit.");
Console.ReadLine();
mt.ReleaseMutex();
}
}Output
Waiting for the Mutex. Owner of the mutex. ENTER is to be pressed to release the mutex and exit.
