async await
这篇文章总结起来: when a task(fuction) is suspend, the progress will back to the caller.
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
// . . .
private async void startButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// ONE
Task<int> getLengthTask = AccessTheWebAsync();
// FOUR
int contentLength = await getLengthTask;
// SIX
resultsTextBox.Text +=
String.Format("\r\nLength of the downloaded string: {0}.\r\n", contentLength);
}
async Task<int> AccessTheWebAsync()
{
// TWO
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
Task<string> getStringTask =
client.GetStringAsync("http://msdn.microsoft.com");
// THREE
string urlContents = await getStringTask;
// FIVE
return urlContents.Length;
}
}
