CAMEvent.Set method

[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The Set method signals the event.

Syntax

void Set();

Parameters

This method has no parameters.

Return value

This method does not return a value.

Remarks

The behavior depends on whether the object is an auto-reset event or a manual-reset event:

• Auto-reset: If any threads are waiting on this event, one thread is released and the event is reset. If no threads are waiting on this event, the event remains signaled.
• Manual-reset: All the threads waiting on this event are released. The event remains signaled.
