Title
Body
I got a question how Monitor.Enter works. I investigated .net framework source code, and it shows this only: [System.Security.SecurityCritical] // auto-generated [ResourceExposure(ResourceScope.None)] [MethodImplAttribute(MethodImplOptions.InternalCall)] private static extern void ReliableEnter(Object obj, ref bool lockTaken); I guess Monitor.Enter implementation is platform dependent, so I browsed Mono source code and I gave up :( Yes, a critical section assigned for each System.Object instance may solve, but, I don't think the actual Monitor.Lock is written like this, because creating a critical section for each System.Object will cost unlimitedly. (Win32 does not allow billions of critical section objects in a process!) Does anybody know how Monitor.Enter works? Please reply. Thanks in advance.
