Task.Status Property
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets the TaskStatus of this task.
public:
property System::Threading::Tasks::TaskStatus Status { System::Threading::Tasks::TaskStatus get(); };public System.Threading.Tasks.TaskStatus Status { get; }member this.Status : System.Threading.Tasks.TaskStatusPublic ReadOnly Property Status As TaskStatusProperty Value
The current TaskStatus of this task instance.
Examples
The following example creates 20 tasks that will loop until a counter is incremented to a value of 2 million. When the first 10 tasks reach 2 million, the cancellation token is cancelled, and any tasks whose counters have not reached 2 million are cancelled. The example then examines the Status property of each task to indicate whether it completed successfully or was cancelled. For those that completed, it displays the value returned by the task.

Remarks
Retrieving the value of the Task.Status property does not block the calling thread until the task has completed.
