Description
Looks like the example above had a bit of an issue.
It seems to me instead of:
if(0 == Interlocked.Exchange(ref usingResource, 1))
the line should say the following:
if(0 == Interlocked.CompareExchange(ref usingResource, 1, 0))
otherwise what's the point of such "resource sharing" locking?
Also i would place resource unlocking code as part of "finally" block something like that:
...
}
finally
{
Interlocked.Exchange(ref usingResource, 0);
}
}
else
{
