ICLRTaskManager::CreateTask Method
Requests explicitly that the common language runtime (CLR) create a new task.
HRESULT CreateTask (
[out] ICLRTask **pTask
);
Parameters
- pTask
[out] A pointer to the address of a newly created ICLRTask, or null, if the task could not be created.
Return Value
HRESULT |
Description |
|---|---|
S_OK |
The method returned successfully. |
HOST_E_CLRNOTAVAILABLE |
The CLR has not been loaded into a process, or the CLR is in a state in which it cannot run managed code or process the call successfully. |
HOST_E_TIMEOUT |
The call timed out. |
HOST_E_NOT_OWNER |
The caller does not own the lock. |
HOST_E_ABANDONED |
An event was canceled while a blocked thread or fiber was waiting on it. |
E_FAIL |
An unknown catastrophic failure occurred. When a method returns E_FAIL, the CLR is no longer usable within the process. Subsequent calls to hosting methods return HOST_E_CLRNOTAVAILABLE. |
E_OUTOFMEMORY |
Not enough memory is available to allocate the requested resource. |
Remarks
The CLR creates a new task automatically upon initialization, when user code creates a thread by using types in the System.Threading namespace, or when the size of the thread pool is increased. It also creates tasks when unmanaged code makes a call to a managed function.
CreateTask allows the host to make an explicit request that the CLR create a new task. For example, the host can invoke this method to preinitialize data structures.

The new task is returned in a suspended state and remains suspended until the host explicitly calls IHostTask::Start. |
