Description

The TryEnter function attempts to lock the object given as parameter, so that only the calling thread can access the object.  

TryEnter returns True if it manages to lock the object, or False otherwise.  

As opposed to the Enter method, TryEnter does not block the calling thread if the given object is currently owned by other threads.
