I’d like create a kernel(aka named events) from C#.
Do I have to interop services and wrap the native CreateEvent function or is there already a .NET class that does the job?
The function that I need to run should be something like this: hEvent = CreateEvent ( NULL , false , false , ‘MyCSHARPEvent’ );
This should notify all procs that probing forMyCSHARPEvent about the event.
If there is a need to wrap the function, how would I translate the SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES struct from C# to win32?
Take a look at the EventWaitHandle class. It’s supported from .Net 2.0 onwards and allows creation of named events. It also supports setting event security, depending on which constructor you use.
