WSACreateEvent (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

This function creates a new event object.

Syntax

WSAEVENT  WSACreateEvent (void);

Parameters

None.

Return Value

If the function fails, the return value is set to NULL. To receive extended error information, call WSAGetLastError.

Remarks

Call this function to create an event object that is manually reset. This function creates the event object with an initial nonsignaled state. Winsock event objects are system objects in Windows Embedded Compact environments. Therefore, if a Windows Embedded Compact application requires auto-reset events, it can call the native CreateEvent function directly. The scope of an event object is limited to the process in which it is created.

Requirements

Header

winsock2.h

Library

Ws2.lib
