The return value is TRUE if the function was successful, or FALSE if an error occurred. To obtain extended error information, use the GetLastError function.
Setting the event causes the event to attain a state of Signaled, which releases all currently waiting threads (for manual reset events), or a single waiting thread (for automatic reset events).
