Constructors

Partitioner<TSource>()

Creates a new partitioner instance.

Properties

SupportsDynamicPartitions

Gets whether additional partitions can be created dynamically.

Methods

Equals(Object)

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

(Inherited from Object)
GetDynamicPartitions()

Creates an object that can partition the underlying collection into a variable number of partitions.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetPartitions(Int32)

Partitions the underlying collection into the given number of partitions.

GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)

Extension Methods

AsParallel<TSource>(Partitioner<TSource>)

Enables parallelization of a query, as sourced by a custom partitioner that is responsible for splitting the input sequence into partitions.

Applies to

Thread Safety

The static methods on Partitioner<TSource> are all thread-safe and may be used concurrently from multiple threads. However, while a created partitioner is in use, the underlying data source should not be modified, whether from the same thread that is using a partitioner or from a separate thread.
