To understand how to post an asynchronous operation on a thread pool, perform the following steps:
Start Visual Studio 2015. Create a new C# console application project.
In the
Program.cs
file, add the followingusing
directives:using System; using System.Threading; using static System.Console; using static System.Threading.Thread;
Add the following code snippet below the
Main
method:private static void AsyncOperation(object state) { WriteLine($"Operation state: {state ?? "(null)"}"); WriteLine($"Worker thread id: {CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId}"); Sleep(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2)); }
Add the following code snippet inside the
