Ejemplos

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se muestra el comportamiento entre procesos de una exclusión mutua con nombre con seguridad de control de acceso. En el ejemplo se usa la sobrecarga del OpenExisting(String) método para probar la existencia de una exclusión mutua con nombre.

Si la exclusión mutua no existe, se crea con la propiedad inicial y la seguridad de control de acceso que deniega al usuario actual el derecho a usar la exclusión mutua, pero concede el derecho de leer y cambiar permisos en la exclusión mutua.

Si ejecuta el ejemplo compilado desde dos ventanas de comandos, la segunda copia producirá una excepción de infracción de acceso en la llamada a OpenExisting(String). La excepción se detecta y el ejemplo usa la OpenExisting(String, MutexRights) sobrecarga del método para abrir la exclusión mutua con los derechos necesarios para leer y cambiar los permisos.

Una vez cambiados los permisos, la exclusión mutua se abre con los derechos necesarios para escribirla y liberarla. Si ejecuta el ejemplo compilado desde una tercera ventana de comandos, se ejecuta con los nuevos permisos.

name puede tener como prefijo Global\ o Local\ especificar un espacio de nombres. Cuando se especifica el Global espacio de nombres, el objeto de sincronización se puede compartir con cualquier proceso del sistema. Cuando se especifica el Local espacio de nombres , que también es el valor predeterminado cuando no se especifica ningún espacio de nombres, el objeto de sincronización se puede compartir con procesos en la misma sesión. En Windows, una sesión es una sesión de inicio de sesión y los servicios normalmente se ejecutan en una sesión no interactiva diferente. En sistemas operativos similares a Unix, cada shell tiene su propia sesión. Los objetos de sincronización local de sesión pueden ser adecuados para sincronizar entre procesos con una relación primaria o secundaria en la que se ejecutan todas en la misma sesión. Para obtener más información sobre los nombres de objetos de sincronización en Windows, vea Nombres de objeto.

Si existe un objeto de sincronización del tipo solicitado en el espacio de nombres , se abre el objeto de sincronización existente. Si un objeto de sincronización no existe en el espacio de nombres o existe un objeto de sincronización de otro tipo en el espacio de nombres , se produce una WaitHandleCannotBeOpenedException excepción .

El OpenExisting método intenta abrir la exclusión mutua del sistema con nombre especificada. Para crear la exclusión mutua del sistema cuando aún no existe, use uno de los Mutex constructores que tiene un name parámetro .

Varias llamadas a este método que usan el mismo valor para name no devuelven necesariamente el mismo Mutex objeto, aunque los objetos que se devuelven representan la misma exclusión mutua del sistema con nombre.

Esta sobrecarga de método equivale a llamar a la sobrecarga del OpenExisting(String, MutexRights) método y especificar MutexRights.Synchronize y MutexRights.Modify derechos, combinados mediante la operación OR bit a bit.

Especificar la MutexRights.Synchronize marca permite que un subproceso espere en la exclusión mutua y especificar la MutexRights.Modify marca permite que un subproceso llame al ReleaseMutex método .

Este método no solicita la propiedad de la exclusión mutua.

Ejemplos

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se muestra el comportamiento entre procesos de una exclusión mutua con nombre con seguridad de control de acceso. En el ejemplo se usa la sobrecarga del OpenExisting(String) método para probar la existencia de una exclusión mutua con nombre.

Si la exclusión mutua no existe, se crea con la propiedad inicial y la seguridad de control de acceso que deniega al usuario actual el derecho a usar la exclusión mutua, pero concede el derecho de leer y cambiar permisos en la exclusión mutua.

Si ejecuta el ejemplo compilado desde dos ventanas de comandos, la segunda copia producirá una excepción de infracción de acceso en la llamada a OpenExisting(String). La excepción se detecta y el ejemplo usa la OpenExisting(String, MutexRights) sobrecarga del método para abrir la exclusión mutua con los derechos necesarios para leer y cambiar los permisos.

Una vez cambiados los permisos, la exclusión mutua se abre con los derechos necesarios para escribirla y liberarla. Si ejecuta el ejemplo compilado desde una tercera ventana de comandos, se ejecuta con los nuevos permisos.

name puede tener como prefijo Global\ o Local\ especificar un espacio de nombres. Cuando se especifica el Global espacio de nombres, el objeto de sincronización se puede compartir con cualquier proceso del sistema. Cuando se especifica el Local espacio de nombres , que también es el valor predeterminado cuando no se especifica ningún espacio de nombres, el objeto de sincronización se puede compartir con procesos en la misma sesión. En Windows, una sesión es una sesión de inicio de sesión y los servicios normalmente se ejecutan en una sesión no interactiva diferente. En sistemas operativos similares a Unix, cada shell tiene su propia sesión. Los objetos de sincronización local de sesión pueden ser adecuados para sincronizar entre procesos con una relación primaria o secundaria en la que se ejecutan todas en la misma sesión. Para obtener más información sobre los nombres de objetos de sincronización en Windows, vea Nombres de objeto.

Si existe un objeto de sincronización del tipo solicitado en el espacio de nombres , se abre el objeto de sincronización existente. Si un objeto de sincronización no existe en el espacio de nombres o existe un objeto de sincronización de otro tipo en el espacio de nombres , se produce una WaitHandleCannotBeOpenedException excepción .

El rights parámetro debe incluir la MutexRights.Synchronize marca para permitir que los subprocesos esperen en la exclusión mutua y la MutexRights.Modify marca para permitir que los subprocesos llamen al ReleaseMutex método .

El OpenExisting método intenta abrir una exclusión mutua con nombre existente. Para crear la exclusión mutua del sistema cuando aún no existe, use uno de los Mutex constructores que tiene un name parámetro .

Varias llamadas a este método que usan el mismo valor para name no devuelven necesariamente el mismo Mutex objeto, aunque los objetos devueltos representan la misma exclusión mutua del sistema con nombre.

Este método no solicita la propiedad de la exclusión mutua.
