When the calls to CriticalSectionStart and CriticalSectionEnd are in the same section of the code, it is recommended to use the type CriticalSection and the syntax USE ... IN.
Example:

// Using a Critical Section variable
S is CriticalSection

// Use for a code block
//---------------------------
UTILISSRIN
// code protected by the critical section
// only one thread will execute this code at a given moment
END

New in version 24

When the calls to CriticalSectionStart and CriticalSectionEnd are in the same section of the code, it is recommended to use the type CriticalSection and the syntax USE ... IN.

Remarks

Using critical sections

To handle critical sections, the management mode of threads must be changed by ThreadMode (associated with the ThreadCriticalSection constant).

Various

For more details on critical sections, see Managing the critical sections.
If a thread is destroyed while it is found in a critical section, the critical section is automatically freed.
A single thread is allowed in all the sections with the same name.
If sections use a different name, a thread can run the code of one section while another thread runs the code of another section.
