Examples

The following code example shows how a programming error in one thread can lead to a SemaphoreFullException in another thread: Two threads enter a semaphore. The second thread releases the semaphore twice, while the first thread is still executing its task. When the first thread finishes and releases the semaphore, the semaphore count is already full and an exception is thrown.

Remarks

The count on a semaphore is decremented each time a thread enters the semaphore, and incremented when a thread releases the semaphore. When the count is zero, subsequent requests block until other threads release the semaphore. When all threads have released the semaphore, the count is at the maximum value specified when the semaphore was created. If a programming error causes a thread to call the Semaphore.Release method at this point, a SemaphoreFullException is thrown.

Note

The Semaphore class does not enforce thread identity on calls to the WaitHandle.WaitOne and Semaphore.Release methods. It is not necessary for the same thread that called WaitOne to call Release.

SemaphoreFullException does not necessarily indicate a problem with the code where the exception occurred. Consider the following scenario: Thread A and thread B enter a semaphore that has a maximum count of two. A programming error in thread B causes it to call Release twice, so that the count on the semaphore is full. As a result, when thread A eventually calls Release, a SemaphoreFullException is thrown.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of the SemaphoreFullException class, see the SemaphoreFullException() constructor.
