I think it is possible to replace Monitor.Wait(semaphore, maxWait) with:
Monitor.Exit(semaphore);
autoResetEvent.WaitOne(maxWait, false);
Monitor.Enter(semaphore);
and Monitor.PulseAll(semaphore) with:
Monitor.Exit(semaphore);
autoResetEvent.Set();
Monitor.Enter(semaphore);
but maybe, class which uses AutoResetEvent should implement IDisposable
interface and call autoResetEvent.Close() in Dispose method.
Great thanks!
