C# class for supporting named event objects

[Brian Muth]

need to do some simple IPC between C# applications, and a named event
object (e.g. CreateEventEx) would fit the bill. I see that System.Threading
has Mutex and Semphore classes, but the ManualResetEvent class appears local
to the process only.

Is there a C# class that supports named event objects?

EventWaitHandle.

I don't know why its derived classes don't export constructors that will
allow you to name the event, but there you go.

Thanks, Jeroen, for your quick response.
