Waits for one or more objects to enter a signaled state.
Count
- the number of handles passed in the Handles
parameter, up to MAXIMUM_WAIT_OBJECTS
(64).Handles
- a pointer to an array of handles. Each handle must grant SYNCHRONIZE
access.WaitType
- the type of wait to perform, either WaitAll
or WaitAny
.Alertable
- determines whether the wait should be altertable. This allows external triggers (such as APCs or calls to NtAlertThread
) to interrupt wait prematurely.Timeout
- an optional pointer to a variable that stores the wait internal. A negative value indicates relative timeout for the specified number of 100-nanosecond intervals. To wait a specific number of milliseconds, multiply them by -10,000
. Positive values indicate an absolute time. NULL
indicates an infinite timeout.STATUS_WAIT_0
..STATUS_WAIT_63
- the thread woke due to the n'th object being signaled.STATUS_ABANDONED_WAIT_0
..STATUS_ABANDONED_WAIT_63
- the thread woke due to the n'th passed mutex becoming abandoned.STATUS_TIMEOUT
- the thread woke due to the timeout.STATUS_USER_APC
- the wait was interrupted by an APC.STATUS_ALERTED
- the wait was interrupted by a call to NtAlertThread
.Despite the name, NtAlertThreadByThreadId
is unrelated to alertable waits and cannot interrupt them.
