FileStream.IsAsync Property

Definition

Gets a value that indicates whether the FileStream was opened asynchronously or synchronously.

public:
 virtual property bool IsAsync { bool get(); };
public virtual bool IsAsync { get; }
member this.IsAsync : bool
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property IsAsync As Boolean

Property Value

true if the FileStream was opened asynchronously; otherwise, false.

Examples

This code example is part of a larger example provided for the FileStream(String, FileMode, FileAccess, FileShare, Int32, Boolean) constructor.

int main()
{
   
   // Create a synchronization object that gets 
   // signaled when verification is complete.
   ManualResetEvent^ manualEvent = gcnew ManualResetEvent( false );
   
   // Create the data to write to the file.
   array<Byte>^writeArray = gcnew array<Byte>(100000);
   (gcnew Random)->NextBytes( writeArray );
   FileStream^ fStream = gcnew FileStream(  "Test#@@#.dat",FileMode::Create,FileAccess::ReadWrite,FileShare::None,4096,true );
   
   // Check that the FileStream was opened asynchronously.
   Console::WriteLine( "fStream was {0}opened asynchronously.", fStream->IsAsync ? (String^)"" : "not " );
   
   // Asynchronously write to the file.
   IAsyncResult^ asyncResult = fStream->BeginWrite( writeArray, 0, writeArray->Length, gcnew AsyncCallback( &FStream::EndWriteCallback ), gcnew State( fStream,writeArray,manualEvent ) );
   
   // Concurrently do other work and then wait 
   // for the data to be written and verified.
   manualEvent->WaitOne( 5000, false );

    // signaled when verification is complete.

Remarks

The IsAsync property detects whether the FileStream handle was opened asynchronously, enabling your code to use the Handle property correctly. In Win32, IsAsync being true means the handle was opened for overlapped I/O, and thus requires different parameters to ReadFile and WriteFile.

You specify this value when you create an instance of the FileStream class using a constructor that has an isAsync, useAsync, or options parameter. When the property is true, the stream utilizes overlapped I/O to perform file operations asynchronously. However, the IsAsync property does not have to be true to call the ReadAsync, WriteAsync, or CopyToAsync method. When the IsAsync property is false and you call the asynchronous read and write operations, the UI thread is still not blocked, but the actual I/O operation is performed synchronously.
