在Service Fabric中保持控制台应用程序的活动

Question

Are there any established patterns for keeping console applications alive when hosted as guest executables in Service Fabric?

Adding a Thread.Sleep(Timeout.Infinite) after I've subscribed to Service Bus or similar feels like a bit of a hack to me. Other approaches I've seen use Console.ReadKey(), but, again, this feels like a hack.

Answer 1

Thread.Sleep(Timeout.Infinite) appears to be what's recommended by Microsoft according to their Azure Service Fabric samples in GitHub:

Answer 2

Console.ReadKey() is perfectly fine. You can Write a message before like

Console.WriteLine("Press any key to end...");
Console.ReadKey();

so the user knows how to end the application.
