Is there a synchronization class that guarantee FIFO order in C#?

by

You’ll need to write your own class to do this, I found this example (pasted because it looks as though the site’s domain has lapsed):

using System.Threading;

public sealed class QueuedLock
{
    private object innerLock;
    private volatile int ticketsCount = 0;
    private volatile int ticketToRide = 1;

    public QueuedLock()
    {
        innerLock = new Object();
    }

    public void Enter()
    {
        int myTicket = Interlocked.Increment(ref ticketsCount);
        Monitor.Enter(innerLock);
        while (true)
        {

            if (myTicket == ticketToRide)
            {
                return;
            }
            else
            {
                Monitor.Wait(innerLock);
            }
        }
    }

    public void Exit()
    {
        Interlocked.Increment(ref ticketToRide);
        Monitor.PulseAll(innerLock);
        Monitor.Exit(innerLock);
    }
}

Example of usage:

QueuedLock queuedLock = new QueuedLock();

try
{
   queuedLock.Enter();
   // here code which needs to be synchronized
   // in correct order
}
finally
{
    queuedLock.Exit();
}
