Dave Marini delves into the history of asynchronous programming on the .NET platform, tracing through the early days of the Asynchronous Programming Model to today’s async/await patterns.
Take advantage of the new Task.WhenEach method to process asynchronous tasks as they complete, enhancing the efficiency of your .NET applications.
There's a lot of confusion about async/await, Task/TPL and asynchronous and parallel programming in general, so Jeremy Clark is on a mission to inform developers on how to use everything properly.
And I've ignored one wrinkle here: If the asynchronous method tied to the Task object has completed, the Await just returns the method and continues on processing in the method -- control isn't ...
Exception handling is different for asynchronous code. Learn the exception handling semantics for asynchronous methods in C#.
Asynchronous methods return a task; when Await is called against that task, the method is immediately suspended, and resumes once the task is complete.
