manual reset event, Auto reset event

Question

In C# what is the difference between manual reset event, autoresetevent. Also when should one use the same. What is difference between setting autoresetevent to true or false.

Answer 1

For the ManualResetEvent, once you've called Set(), you have to deliberately call Reset() to put it back in an unsignaled state such that calls to WaitOne() will block.

This is not necessary for AutoResetEvent.

The documentation is pretty good on MSDN for ManualResetEvent and AutoResetEvent.
