Gets or sets a Boolean value that indicates whether asynchronous processing is allowed by the connection created by using this connection string.

public:
 property bool AsynchronousProcessing { bool get(); void set(bool value); };

public bool AsynchronousProcessing { get; set; }

member this.AsynchronousProcessing : bool with get, set

Public Property AsynchronousProcessing As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

The value of the AsynchronousProcessing property, or false if no value has been supplied.

Examples

The following example retrieves a connection string and verifies that the connection string is configured to allow for asynchronous processing. (In this case, the string comes from a procedure within the application, but in a production application, the connection string might come from a configuration file, or some other source.) Then, the example performs an asynchronous operation, updating values within a sample database on a background thread.

using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Threading;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Create a SqlConnectionStringBuilder instance,
        // and ensure that it is set up for asynchronous processing.
        SqlConnectionStringBuilder builder =
            new SqlConnectionStringBuilder(GetConnectionString());
        // Asynchronous method calls won't work unless you
        // have added this option, or have added
        // the clause "Asynchronous Processing=true"
        // to the connection string.
        builder.AsynchronousProcessing = true;

        string commandText =
            "UPDATE Production.Product SET ReorderPoint = ReorderPoint + 1 " +
            "WHERE ReorderPoint IS NOT Null;" +
            "WAITFOR DELAY '0:0:3';" +
            "UPDATE Production.Product SET ReorderPoint = ReorderPoint - 1 " +
            "WHERE ReorderPoint IS NOT Null";
        RunCommandAsynchronously(commandText, builder.ConnectionString);

        Console.WriteLine("Press any key to finish.");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }

        // you can retrieve it from a configuration file.

    {
        // Given command text and connection string, asynchronously execute
        // the specified command against the connection. For this example,
        // the code displays an indicator as it's working, verifying the
        // asynchronous behavior.

Remarks

This property corresponds to the "Asynchronous Processing" and "async" keys within the connection string. In order to take advantage of the asynchronous processing provided by the SqlCommand object, this key/value pair must be included within the connection string of the associated SqlConnection object.
