我已经阅读了关于这方面的文档，我想我明白了。AutoResetEvent在代码通过event.WaitOne()时重置，但ManualResetEvent不会。
这对吗?
当前回答
是的。这就像收费站和门的区别。ManualResetEvent是门，需要手动关闭(重置)。AutoResetEvent是一个收费站，允许一辆车通过，在下一辆车通过之前自动关闭。
其他回答
是的。这是绝对正确的。
您可以将ManualResetEvent视为指示状态的一种方式。某些东西打开(设置)或关闭(重置)。有一定持续时间的事件任何等待该状态发生的线程都可以继续。
AutoResetEvent更类似于信号。这是发生了什么事的一个迹象。没有任何持续时间的事件。通常情况下(但不一定)发生的“事情”很小，需要由单个线程处理——因此在单个线程消耗事件后自动重置。
简短的回答是肯定的。最重要的区别是AutoResetEvent只允许一个等待线程继续。另一方面，ManualResetEvent将继续允许线程，甚至同时允许几个线程继续，直到您告诉它停止(重置它)。
我创建了简单的示例来阐明ManualResetEvent与AutoResetEvent的理解。
AutoResetEvent:让我们假设你有3个工作线程。如果这些线程中的任何一个调用WaitOne()，所有其他两个线程将停止执行并等待信号。我假设他们正在使用WaitOne()。它就像;如果我不工作，没人会工作。在第一个例子中你可以看到
autoReset.Set();
Thread.Sleep(1000);
autoReset.Set();
当你调用Set()时，所有线程都将工作并等待信号。1秒后，我发送第二个信号，它们执行并等待(WaitOne())。想想这些家伙是足球队的球员，如果一个球员说我会等到经理叫我，其他人会等到经理告诉他们继续(Set())
public class AutoResetEventSample
{
private AutoResetEvent autoReset = new AutoResetEvent(false);
public void RunAll()
{
new Thread(Worker1).Start();
new Thread(Worker2).Start();
new Thread(Worker3).Start();
autoReset.Set();
Thread.Sleep(1000);
autoReset.Set();
Console.WriteLine("Main thread reached to end.");
}
public void Worker1()
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered in worker 1");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
Console.WriteLine("Worker1 is running {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
autoReset.WaitOne();
}
}
public void Worker2()
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered in worker 2");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
Console.WriteLine("Worker2 is running {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
autoReset.WaitOne();
}
}
public void Worker3()
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered in worker 3");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
Console.WriteLine("Worker3 is running {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
autoReset.WaitOne();
}
}
}
在这个例子中，你可以清楚地看到，当你第一次点击Set()时，它会让所有线程离开，然后在1秒后它会通知所有线程等待!一旦你再次设置它们，不管它们在里面调用WaitOne()，它们都会继续运行，因为你必须手动调用Reset()来停止它们。
manualReset.Set();
Thread.Sleep(1000);
manualReset.Reset();
Console.WriteLine("Press to release all threads.");
Console.ReadLine();
manualReset.Set();
这更多的是裁判和球员之间的关系，不管任何球员受伤了，等待比赛，其他人都将继续工作。如果裁判说等待(Reset())，那么所有球员将等待下一次信号。
public class ManualResetEventSample
{
private ManualResetEvent manualReset = new ManualResetEvent(false);
public void RunAll()
{
new Thread(Worker1).Start();
new Thread(Worker2).Start();
new Thread(Worker3).Start();
manualReset.Set();
Thread.Sleep(1000);
manualReset.Reset();
Console.WriteLine("Press to release all threads.");
Console.ReadLine();
manualReset.Set();
Console.WriteLine("Main thread reached to end.");
}
public void Worker1()
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered in worker 1");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
Console.WriteLine("Worker1 is running {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
manualReset.WaitOne();
}
}
public void Worker2()
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered in worker 2");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
Console.WriteLine("Worker2 is running {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
manualReset.WaitOne();
}
}
public void Worker3()
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered in worker 3");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
Console.WriteLine("Worker3 is running {0}", i);
Thread.Sleep(2000);
manualReset.WaitOne();
}
}
}
好吧，通常在同一个线程中添加2个答案不是一个好的做法，但我不想编辑/删除我之前的答案，因为它可以在另一种方式上有所帮助。
现在，我创建了一个更全面、更容易理解的控制台应用程序片段。
只需在两个不同的控制台上运行示例，并观察行为。你会对幕后发生的事情有更清楚的了解。
