Constructors

Initializes a new instance of the AsyncAutoResetEvent class that does not inline awaiters.

public AsyncAutoResetEvent()

Initializes a new instance of the AsyncAutoResetEvent class.

public AsyncAutoResetEvent(bool allowInliningAwaiters)

allowInliningAwaiters bool: A value indicating whether to complete the task synchronously in the Set() method, as opposed to asynchronously. false better simulates the behavior of the AutoResetEvent class, but true can result in slightly better performance.

Unblocks one waiter or sets the signal if no waiters are present so the next waiter may proceed immediately.

public void Set()

Returns an awaitable that may be used to asynchronously acquire the next signal.

public Task WaitAsync()

Returns an awaitable that may be used to asynchronously acquire the next signal.

public Task WaitAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken)

cancellationToken CancellationToken: A token whose cancellation removes the caller from the queue of those waiting for the event.
