具有CancellationToken和ReadTimeout的异步串行端口

Question

I'm trying to wrap the SerialPort's read method in a task that can be awaited, that way I can get the benefits of using a CancellationToken and the timeout from the SerialPort object. My issue is that I cannot seem to get the Task to throw a CancellationException. Here's my code...

    static CancellationTokenSource Source = new CancellationTokenSource();

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        TestAsyncWrapperToken();
        Console.WriteLine("Press any key to cancel");
        Console.ReadKey(true);
        Source.Cancel();
        Console.WriteLine("Source.Cancel called");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }

    static async void TestAsyncWrapperToken()
    {
        try
        {
            using (var Port = new SerialPort("COM2", 9600, Parity.None, 8, StopBits.One))
            {
                Port.Open();
                var Buffer = new byte[1];
                await Task.Factory.StartNew(() =>
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Starting Read");
                    Port.ReadTimeout = 5000;
                    Port.Read(Buffer, 0, Buffer.Length);                        
                }, Source.Token);
            }
        }
        catch (TaskCanceledException)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Task Cancelled");
        }
        catch (TimeoutException)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Timeout on Port");
        }
        catch (Exception Exc)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Exception encountered {0}", Exc);
        }
    }

Is it because the Port.Read method is a blocking call? Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Two methods are conceivable.

1. Using ReadAsync
   It is to get the Stream object from the BaseStream property of the SreiaPort object and use the Stream.ReadAsync Method (Byte[], Int32, Int32, CancellationToken) .

   Although it is not exactly matched content, please refer to this.

   NetworkStream.ReadAsync with a cancellation token never cancels

2. Using DataReceivedEvent and SerialDataReceivedEventHandler
   Change so that it works with DataReceivedEvent as trigger.
