Procedura: utilizzare SpinWait per implementare un'operazione di attesa a due fasi
L'esempio seguente mostra come usare un oggetto System.Threading.SpinWait per implementare un'operazione di attesa a due fasi. Nella prima fase, l'oggetto di sincronizzazione, Latch
, ruota per alcuni cicli mentre controlla se il blocco è diventato disponibile. Nella seconda fase, se il blocco diventa disponibile, il metodo Wait
restituisce un risultato senza usare System.Threading.ManualResetEvent per l'attesa; in caso contrario, Wait
esegue l'attesa.
Esempio
Questo esempio illustra un'implementazione di base di una primitiva di sincronizzazione Latch. È possibile usare questa struttura dei dati quando si prevedono tempi di attesa molto brevi. Questo esempio viene fornito solo per scopi dimostrativi. Se sono necessarie funzionalità di tipo latch nel programma, è consigliabile usare System.Threading.ManualResetEventSlim.

Il latch usa l'oggetto SpinWait per ruotare sul posto solo fino a quando la chiamata successiva a SpinOnce
fa in modo che SpinWait restituisca l'intervallo di tempo del thread. A questo punto, il latch provoca il cambio di contesto chiamando WaitOne su ManualResetEvent e passando la parte restante del valore di timeout.
L'output di registrazione mostra la frequenza con cui il latch è stato in grado di migliorare le prestazioni acquisendo il blocco senza usare l'oggetto ManualResetEvent.
