Description

Interface to MS Windows Event objects.

Prerequsites

Requires the win32-ipc library.

Installation

gem install win32-event

Synopsis

Win32::Event.new("Foo") do |event|
  event.set
  # Do stuff
  event.reset
end
e2 = Win32::Event.open("Bar")
# Do stuff
e2.close

Documentation

The event.rb file contains inline RDoc documentation. If you installed
this file as a gem, then you have the docs.

Notes

The Event class is a subclass of Win32::Ipc (win32-ipc). This library
require's the win32-ipc library internally (you don't need to explicitly
call it).
A PulseEvent() wrapper is intentionally omitted. From the MSDN web site:
"This function is unreliable and should not be used. It exists mainly for
backward compatibility."

Acknowledgements

The Win32::Event Perl module by Chris Madsen was used as a general
guideline for developing the API.

Known Bugs
