Namespace: Microsoft::WRL::Wrappers

Waits until the current object, or the Semaphore object associated with the specified handle, is in the signaled state or the specified time-out interval has elapsed.

   DWORD milliseconds = INFINITE
);

h
A handle to a Semaphore object.

A Details::SyncLockWithStatusT<HandleTraits::SemaphoreTraits>

Moves the specified handle from a Semaphore object to the current Semaphore object.

Semaphore& operator=(
   _Inout_ Semaphore&& h
);

h
Rvalue-reference to a Semaphore object.

A reference to the current Semaphore object.

Initializes a new instance of the Semaphore class.
