I have read the documentation on this and I think I understand. An AutoResetEvent
resets when the code passes through event.WaitOne()
, but a ManualResetEvent
does not.
Is this correct?

Yes. It’s like the difference between a tollbooth and a door. The ManualResetEvent
is the door, which needs to be closed (reset) manually. The AutoResetEvent
is a tollbooth, allowing one car to go by and automatically closing before the next one can get through.
