CreateEvent用法

原文链接：http://blog.csdn.net/chen825919148/article/details/7904289

HANDLE CreateEvent(
LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpEventAttributes,
BOOL bManualReset, 
BOOL bInitialState,
LPCSTR lpName
);
bManualReset:TRUE，使用ResetEvent()手动重置为无信号状态；FALSE，当一个等待线程被释放时,自动重置状态为无信号状态。

bInitialState：指定事件对象的初始状态，当TRUE,初始状态为有信号状态；当FALSE,初始状态为无信号状态。

下面主要演示一下采用CreateEvent实现多线程。

例子很简单，主要测试CreateEvent中bManualReset:和bInitialState参数的取值在线程调用中信号状态的情况。

测试1：

bManualReset：TRUE
bInitialState：TRUE

CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, TRUE, NULL); //使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时有信号状态

example.cpp

 #include "iostream"
 #include "windows.h"
 using namespace std;

 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam);
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam);
 HANDLE hEvent = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread1 = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread2 = NULL;
 int main(int argc, char *args[])
 {
     <span style="color:#ff0000;">hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, TRUE, NULL)</span>; //使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时有信号状态
     //hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, TRUE, NULL); //当一个等待线程被释放时，自动重置为无信号状态，初始是有信号状态
     //if (SetEvent(hEvent))
     //{
     //  cout << "setEvent 成功" <<endl;
     //}
     hThread1 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc1, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     hThread2 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc2, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     if ( NULL == hThread1)
     {
         cout <<"create thread fail!";
     }
     //DWORD dCount = ResumeThread(hThread);
     //cout << LOWORD(dCount) << endl;
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread1@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<" thread1 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread1 --signal"<<endl;

     //SetEvent(hEvent);
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread2@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<"thread2 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread2--signal"<<endl;

     return 0;
 }

执行结果：

从结果中看，执行完线程1又执行了线程2.

由于hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, TRUE, NULL)，使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时有信号状态

所以hEvent一直处于有信号状态，无论是线程1释放后，hEvent仍处于有信号状态，所以线程2正常执行了。

测试2：

bManualReset：FALSE
bInitialState：TRUE

 hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, TRUE, NULL); //当一个等待线程被释放时，自动重置为无信号状态，初始是有信号状态

example2.cpp

 #include "iostream"
 #include "windows.h"
 using namespace std;

 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam);
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam);
 HANDLE hEvent = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread1 = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread2 = NULL;
 int main(int argc, char *args[])
 {
     //hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, TRUE, NULL); //使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时有信号状态
     <span style="color:#ff0000;">hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, TRUE, NULL); </span>//当一个等待线程被释放时，自动重置为无信号状态，初始是有信号状态
     //if (SetEvent(hEvent))
     //{
     //  cout << "setEvent 成功" <<endl;
     //}
     hThread1 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc1, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     hThread2 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc2, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     if ( NULL == hThread1)
     {
         cout <<"create thread fail!";
     }
     //DWORD dCount = ResumeThread(hThread);
     //cout << LOWORD(dCount) << endl;
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread1@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<" thread1 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread1 --signal"<<endl;

     //SetEvent(hEvent);
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread2@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<"thread2 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread2--signal"<<endl;

     return 0;
 }

执行结果：

从执行结果中分析，执行了线程1，线程2一直在等待，直到主线程结束。

由于hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, TRUE, NULL)，当一个等待线程被释放时，自动重置为无信号状态，初始是有信号状态

初始执行线程1的时候，hEvent是有信号的，所以线程1正常执行；又由于bManualReset=FALSE，所以执行完线程1后，hEvent自动重置为无信号状态，所以在线程2中，

 WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

函数一直在等待hEvent变为有信号状态，但是当主线程执行完，还没等待到，线程2程序一直没有走下去。

测试3：

bManualReset：TRUE
bInitialState：FALSE

hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, NULL);//使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时为无信号状态

example3.cpp

 #include "iostream"
 #include "windows.h"
 using namespace std;

 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam);
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam);
 HANDLE hEvent = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread1 = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread2 = NULL;
 int main(int argc, char *args[])
 {
     //hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, TRUE, NULL); //使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时有信号状态
     //hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, TRUE, NULL); //当一个等待线程被释放时，自动重置为无信号状态，初始是有信号状态
     <span style="color:#ff0000;">hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, NULL);//使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时为无信号状态</span>
     //if (SetEvent(hEvent))
     //{
     //  cout << "setEvent 成功" <<endl;
     //}
     hThread1 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc1, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     hThread2 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc2, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     if ( NULL == hThread1)
     {
         cout <<"create thread fail!";
     }
     //DWORD dCount = ResumeThread(hThread);
     //cout << LOWORD(dCount) << endl;
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread1@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<" thread1 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread1 --signal"<<endl;

     //SetEvent(hEvent);
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread2@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<"thread2 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread2--signal"<<endl;

     return 0;
 }

执行结果，可想而知，只能输出：

 in thread1@!

 in thread2@!

因为初始为无信号状态，所以hEvent一直处于无信号状态，因此这两个线程一直在等待，直到主线程结束。

修改：放开例子中的注释部分：

if (SetEvent(hEvent))//设置信号为有信号状态
{
cout << "setEvent 成功" <<endl;
}

执行结果：

可见，线程1和线程2都执行了。

因为调用SetEvent，事件变为有信号状态，线程1执行；又由于线程1释放后，hEvent仍旧处于有信号状态，所以线程2也执行了。

再修改:在线程1中，添加ResetEvent(hEvent)（手动设置事件为无信号状态），则线程2不会执行。

测试4：

bManualReset：FALSE
bInitialState：FALSE

hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, FALSE, NULL);//线程释放后自动重置为无信号状态，初始化时为无信号状态

example4.cpp

 #include "iostream"
 #include "windows.h"
 using namespace std;

 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam);
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam);
 HANDLE hEvent = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread1 = NULL;
 HANDLE hThread2 = NULL;
 int main(int argc, char *args[])
 {
     //hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, TRUE, NULL); //使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时有信号状态
     //hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, TRUE, NULL); //当一个等待线程被释放时，自动重置为无信号状态，初始是有信号状态
     //hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, TRUE, FALSE, NULL);//使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时为无信号状态
     hEvent = CreateEvent(NULL, FALSE, FALSE, NULL);//使用手动重置为无信号状态，初始化时为无信号状态
     if (SetEvent(hEvent))
     {
         cout << "setEvent 成功" <<endl;
     }
     hThread1 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc1, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     hThread2 = CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)ThreadProc2, NULL, 0,NULL);
     Sleep(200);
     if ( NULL == hThread1)
     {
         cout <<"create thread fail!";
     }
     //DWORD dCount = ResumeThread(hThread);
     //cout << LOWORD(dCount) << endl;
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc1(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread1@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<" thread1 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread1 --signal"<<endl;

     //SetEvent(hEvent);
     return 0;
 }
 DWORD WINAPI ThreadProc2(LPVOID lpParam)
 {
     cout <<"in thread2@!"<<endl;

     DWORD dReturn = WaitForSingleObject(hEvent,INFINITE);

     if ( WAIT_OBJECT_0 == dReturn)
     {
         cout <<"thread2 signaled ! "<<endl;
     }
     cout <<"in thread2--signal"<<endl;

     return 0;
 }

执行结果：

由于调用SetEvent，hEvent为有信号状态，线程1正常执行，又由于调用完线程1后，hEvent自动重置为无信号状态，所以线程2只能在等待，直到主线程退出。

修改：线程1中的SetEvent(hEvent);的注释去掉，再运行，则线程1和线程2 都会执行。
