Parallel Class

Definition

An activity that executes all child activities simultaneously and asynchronously.

public ref class Parallel sealed : System::Activities::NativeActivity
[System.Windows.Markup.ContentProperty("Branches")]
public sealed class Parallel : System.Activities.NativeActivity
[<System.Windows.Markup.ContentProperty("Branches")>]
type Parallel = class
    inherit NativeActivity

Examples

The following code sample demonstrates creating a Parallel activity.

return new Parallel
{
    // Timeout from branch causes other branch to cancel.
    CompletionCondition = true,

    Branches =
    {
        // Delay Branch
        new Sequence
        {
            Activities =
            {
                new WriteLine { Text = "Branch1: Body is about to Delay 2secs transferring execution to Branch2" },
                new Delay
                {
                    Duration = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2)
                },
                new WriteLine { Text = "Branch1: Body is about to complete causing Branch2 to cancel.." },
            }
        },

Remarks

A Parallel activity operates by simultaneously scheduling each Activity in its Branches collection at the start. It completes when all of its Branches complete or when its CompletionCondition property evaluates to true. While all the Activity objects run asynchronously, they do not execute on separate threads, so each successive activity only executes when the previously scheduled activity completes or goes idle. If none of the child activities of this activity go idle, this activity execute in the same way that a Sequence activity does.

Constructors

Parallel()

Creates a new instance of the Parallel activity.

Properties

Branches

The child elements to be executed in parallel.

CacheId

Gets the identifier of the cache that is unique within the scope of the workflow definition.

(Inherited from Activity)
CanInduceIdle

Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the activity can cause the workflow to become idle.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
CompletionCondition

Evaluates after any branch completes.

Constraints

Gets a collection of Constraint activities that can be configured to provide validation for the Activity.

(Inherited from Activity)
DisplayName

Gets or sets an optional friendly name that is used for debugging, validation, exception handling, and tracking.

(Inherited from Activity)
Id

Gets an identifier that is unique in the scope of the workflow definition.

(Inherited from Activity)
Implementation

The execution logic of the activity.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
ImplementationVersion

Gets or sets the implementation version of the activity.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
Variables

The collection of contained variables.

Methods

Abort(NativeActivityAbortContext)

When implemented in a derived class, takes actions in response to the activity being aborted.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
CacheMetadata(ActivityMetadata)

Not implemented. Use the CacheMetadata(NativeActivityMetadata) method instead.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
CacheMetadata(NativeActivityMetadata)

Creates and validates a description of the activity's arguments, variables, child activities, and activity delegates.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
Cancel(NativeActivityContext)

When implemented in a derived class, runs logic to cause graceful early completion of the activity.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
Execute(NativeActivityContext)

When implemented in a derived class, runs the activity's execution logic.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
OnCreateDynamicUpdateMap(NativeActivityUpdateMapMetadata, Activity)

Raises an event when creating a map for the dynamic update.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
OnCreateDynamicUpdateMap(UpdateMapMetadata, Activity)

Raises an event when creating a map for the dynamic update.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
ShouldSerializeDisplayName()

Indicates whether the DisplayName property should be serialized.

(Inherited from Activity)
ToString()

Returns a String that contains the Id and DisplayName of the Activity.

(Inherited from Activity)
UpdateInstance(NativeActivityUpdateContext)

Updates the instance of NativeActivity.

(Inherited from NativeActivity)
