Why is there SetEvent but not IsEventSet ? 1

[neseidus]

Hi

The project I'm working on involves working with events, and one of the things I need to do is find out whether the event is set or not.

Is there an easy way to do this?

I'm calling CreateEvent and SetEvent to create and set events

I can't just have a flag that changes whenever an event is set since it's heavily threaded... And my attempt using mutex's failed.

Any help very appreciated!

You're using the event together with WaitForSingleObject (or similar wait functions), right?

Given zero time-out it will return immediately. If it returns WAIT_TIMEOUT, the event isn't signaled.

That will work
