testSemaphore ( semaphore : string ) : boolean
Parameter | Type | Description | |
---|---|---|---|
semaphore | string | -> | Semaphore to test |
Result | boolean | <- | false: semaphore does not exist, true: semaphore exists |
Description
The testSemaphore
command tests for the existence of semaphore.
The difference between the semaphore
and the testSemaphore
functions is that testSemaphore
does not create the semaphore if it does not exist. If the semaphore exists, the command returns true
. Otherwise, it returns false
.
