Workaround for the WaitHandle.WaitAll 64 handle limit?

Question

My application spawns loads of different small worker threads via ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem which I keep track of via multiple ManualResetEvent

Answer 1

Here is another solution. Here is the "events" is a list of ManualResetEvent. The size of the list can be greater than 64 (MAX_EVENTS_NO).

int len = events.Count;
if (len <= MAX_EVENTS_NO)
    {
        WaitHandle.WaitAll(events.ToArray());
    } else {
        int start = 0;
        int num = MAX_EVENTS_NO;
        while (true)
            {
                if(start + num > len)
                {
                   num = len - start;
                }
                List sublist = events.GetRange(start, num);
                WaitHandle.WaitAll(sublist.ToArray());
                start += num;
                if (start >= len)
                   break;
           }
   }
