TplExtensions.FollowCancelableTaskToCompletion<T> Method

Definition

Gets a task that will eventually produce the result of another task, when that task finishes. If that task is instead canceled, its successor will be followed for its result, iteratively.

public static System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> FollowCancelableTaskToCompletion<T> (Func<System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T>> taskToFollow, System.Threading.CancellationToken ultimateCancellation, System.Threading.Tasks.TaskCompletionSource<T> taskThatFollows = default);
public static System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T> FollowCancelableTaskToCompletion<T> (Func<System.Threading.Tasks.Task<T>> taskToFollow, System.Threading.CancellationToken ultimateCancellation, System.Threading.Tasks.TaskCompletionSource<T>? taskThatFollows = default);
static member FollowCancelableTaskToCompletion : Func<System.Threading.Tasks.Task<'T>> * System.Threading.CancellationToken * System.Threading.Tasks.TaskCompletionSource<'T> -> System.Threading.Tasks.Task<'T>
Public Function FollowCancelableTaskToCompletion(Of T) (taskToFollow As Func(Of Task(Of T)), ultimateCancellation As CancellationToken, Optional taskThatFollows As TaskCompletionSource(Of T) = Nothing) As Task(Of T)

Type Parameters
