This is the sixth part of the Concurrency series. For your convenience you can find other parts in the table of contents in Part 1 – Mutex performance in .NET Let’s start with the following code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 |
using System; using System.Threading; namespace AbandonedMutex { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { var mutex = new Mutex(false, "mutexName"); try { while (true) { try { if (mutex.WaitOne(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3))) { break; } else { Console.WriteLine("Timeout"); } } catch { } } Console.WriteLine("Mutex acquired!"); Console.ReadLine(); } finally { try { mutex.ReleaseMutex(); Console.WriteLine("Mutex released"); } catch { } } Console.ReadLine(); Console.WriteLine("Done"); } } } |
We want to acquire a mutex.…
