WakeConditionVariable function (synchapi.h)
Wake a single thread waiting on the specified condition variable.
Syntax
void WakeConditionVariable(
[in, out] PCONDITION_VARIABLE ConditionVariable
);
Parameters
[in, out] ConditionVariable
A pointer to the condition variable.
Return value
None
Remarks
The WakeAllConditionVariable wakes all waiting threads while the WakeConditionVariable wakes only a single thread. Waking one thread is similar to setting an auto-reset event, while waking all threads is similar to pulsing a manual reset event but more reliable (see PulseEvent for details).
Examples
