Methods

	Name	Description
	CompleteAfterTask<T>
	ContinueWhenAllCompleted(IVsTaskSchedulerService, VsTaskRunContext, array<IVsTask[], IVsTaskBody)	Creates a Visual Studio task that is run after all the provided tasks have either finished running or have been cancelled. Overrides ContinueWhenAllCompleted.
	ContinueWhenAllCompleted(IVsTaskSchedulerService, VsTaskRunContext, array<IVsTask[], VsTaskContinuationOptions, IVsTaskBody, Object)	Creates a task (using the specified options) that is run after all the given tasks are completed. Overrides ContinueWhenAllCompletedEx.
	ContinueWith(IVsTask, VsTaskRunContext, IVsTaskBody)	Appends the provided action to this task to be run after the task is run to completion. The action is invoked on the context provided. Overrides ContinueWith.
	ContinueWith(IVsTask, VsTaskRunContext, VsTaskContinuationOptions, IVsTaskBody, Object)	Appends the provided action (using the specified options) to this task to be run after the task is run to completion. The action is invoked on the context provided. Overrides ContinueWithEx.
	CreateAndStartTask	Creates a Visual Studio task that is executed with the specified context.
	CreateAndStartTaskEx	Creates a Visual Studio task that is executed with the specified context.
	CreateTask(IVsTaskSchedulerService, VsTaskRunContext, IVsTaskBody)	Creates a task that is run on the given context.
	CreateTask(IVsTaskSchedulerService, VsTaskRunContext, VsTaskCreationOptions, IVsTaskBody, Object)	Creates a task with the specified options that is run on the given context.
	CreateTaskBody(Action)	Creates a task body that can be consumed by the task scheduler service.
	CreateTaskBody(Func<Object>)
	CreateTaskBody(VsTaskBodyCallback)	Creates a task body that can be consumed by the task scheduler service.
	CreateTaskBody<T>(Action<T>)	Creates a task body that can be consumed by the task scheduler service.
	CreateTaskBody<T>(Func<T, Object>)
	CreateTaskCompletionSource	Creates a task completion source instance with the specified options.
	Delay(IVsTaskSchedulerService, Double)	Retrieves a task that delays execution of the subsequent task by a given period of time.
	Delay(IVsTaskSchedulerService, TimeSpan)	Returns a task that delays execution of the subsequent task by a given period of time.
	GetAwaiter(IVsTask)	Internal use only. Gets the task to be used for scheduling continuations.
	GetAwaiter(VsTaskAwaiter)	Internal use only. Gets the awaiter instance that contains the task that will be used to schedule continuations. Adds await support for an awaiter instance that can be returned from a call to ResumeWith.
	InvokeAsync<T>	transforms a task parallel library (TPL) task from an asynchronous function into an IVsTask.
	ResumeWith	Extension method for task awatier to support awaits with a specific context.
	Wait(IVsTask, Int32)	Waits for the task to complete (not including any continuations). Override for WaitEx with default options.
	Wait(IVsTask, Int32, VsTaskWaitOptions)	Waits for the task to complete (not including any continuations). Override for WaitEx to use proper enumeration types.
	Yield	Yields the current operation on the thread. The rest of the asynchronous method will be scheduled as a continuation.
