TaskFactory<TResult> Class

Definition

Provides support for creating and scheduling Task<TResult> objects.

generic <typename TResult>
public ref class TaskFactory
public class TaskFactory<TResult>
type TaskFactory<'Result> = class
Public Class TaskFactory(Of TResult)

Type Parameters

TResult

The return value of the Task<TResult> objects that the methods of this class create.

Inheritance
TaskFactory<TResult>

Examples

The following example uses the static Factory property to make two calls to the TaskFactory<TResult>.StartNew method. The first task returns a string array that is populated with the names of files in the user's MyDocuments directory, while the second returns a string array that is populated with the names of subdirectories of the user's MyDocuments directory. It then calls the TaskFactory.ContinueWhenAll(Task[], Action<Task[]>) method, which displays information about the number of files and directories in the arrays returned by the two tasks after they have completed execution.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Task<string[]>[] tasks = new Task<string[]>[2];
      String docsDirectory = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments);

      tasks[0] = Task<string[]>.Factory.StartNew( () => Directory.GetFiles(docsDirectory));
      tasks[1] = Task<string[]>.Factory.StartNew( () => Directory.GetDirectories(docsDirectory));

      Task.Factory.ContinueWhenAll(tasks, completedTasks => {
                                             Console.WriteLine("{0} contains: ", docsDirectory);
                                             Console.WriteLine("   {0} subdirectories", tasks[1].Result.Length);
                                             Console.WriteLine("   {0} files", tasks[0].Result.Length);
                                          } );
   }
}
// The example displays output like the following:
//       C:\Users\<username>\Documents contains:
//          24 subdirectories
//          16 files

Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      Dim tasks(1) As Task(Of String())
      Dim docsDirectory As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments)
      
      tasks(0) = Task(Of String()).Factory.StartNew( Function()Directory.GetFiles(docsDirectory) )
''                                        End Sub )
      tasks(1) = Task(Of String()).Factory.StartNew( Function() Directory.GetDirectories(docsDirectory) )
''                                        End Sub )
      Task.Factory.ContinueWhenAll(tasks, Sub(completedTasks)
                                             Console.WriteLine("{0} contains: ", docsDirectory)
                                             Console.WriteLine("   {0} subdirectories", tasks(1).Result.Length)
                                             Console.WriteLine("   {0} files", tasks(0).Result.Length)
                                          End Sub)
   End Sub

'       C:\Users\<username>\Documents contains:
'          24 subdirectories
'          16 files

Remarks

.NET provides two factories for creating and scheduling tasks:

The TaskFactory<TResult> class allows you to do the following:

  • Create a task and start it immediately by calling the StartNew method. You can call the overloads of this method to create and execute a task that requires non-default arguments.

    Warning

    Starting with .NET Framework 4.5, the Task.Run method provides the easiest way to create a task with default configuration values and start it immediately.

  • Create a task that starts when any one of the tasks in an array has completed by calling the ContinueWhenAny or ContinueWhenAny method.

  • Create a task that starts when all the tasks in an array have completed by calling the ContinueWhenAll or ContinueWhenAll method.

The static Task<TResult>.Factory property returns a default TaskFactory<TResult> object. You can also call one of the TaskFactory<TResult> class constructors to configure the Task<TResult> objects that the TaskFactory<TResult> class creates. The following example configures a new TaskFactory<TResult> object to create tasks that have a specified cancellation token, task creation options, continuation options, and a customized task scheduler.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

public class Example
{
   static CancellationTokenSource cts = new CancellationTokenSource();

   static TaskFactory<int> factory = new TaskFactory<int>(
      cts.Token,
      TaskCreationOptions.PreferFairness,
      TaskContinuationOptions.ExecuteSynchronously,
      new CustomScheduler());

   static void Main()
   {
      var t2 = factory.StartNew(() => DoWork());
      cts.Dispose();
   }

   static int DoWork()
   {
       /*...*/
       return DateTime.Now.Hour <= 12 ?  1 : 2;
    }
}
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Threading
Imports System.Threading.Tasks

Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      Dim cts As New CancellationTokenSource()
      Dim factory As New TaskFactory(Of Integer)(
                         cts.Token,
                         TaskCreationOptions.PreferFairness,
                         TaskContinuationOptions.ExecuteSynchronously,
                         New CustomScheduler())

      Dim t2 = factory.StartNew(Function() DoWork())
      cts.Dispose()
   End Sub

   Function DoWork() As Integer
      Return If(Date.Now.Hour <= 12, 1, 2)
   End Function
End Module

In most cases, you do not have to instantiate a new TaskFactory<TResult> instance. Instead, you can use the static Task<TResult>.Factory property, which returns a factory object that uses default values. You can then call its methods to start new tasks or define task continuations. For an illustration, see the example.
