CBaseAllocator::SetWaiting

A version of this page is also available for

Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R3

4/8/2010

Increments the m_lWaiting data member to indicate that a thread is waiting for a sample.

Syntax

void SetWaiting( );

Parameters

None.

Return Value

None.

Remarks

This member function is called from CBaseAllocator::GetBuffer if no samples are available on the free list.

After calling this, CBaseAllocator::GetBuffer calls the Win32 WaitForSingleObject function to wait for the list to signal that a sample is available.

The list signals by calling CBaseAllocator::ReleaseBuffer, which in turn calls CBaseAllocator::NotifySample, which sets m_lWaiting to zero and calls the Win32 ReleaseSemaphore function.
