I have the async code that implements cancellation token. It's working but Im not pretty sure if this is the right way to do it so I just want feedback about it.
Here is the actual code:
/// <summary>
///
/// </summary>
private async void SaveData() {
if (GetActiveServiceRequest() != null)
{
var tokenSource = new System.Threading.CancellationTokenSource();
this.ShowWizardPleaseWait("Saving data...");
var someTask = System.Threading.Tasks.Task<bool>.Factory.StartNew(() =>
{
bool returnVal = false;
// Set sleep of 7 seconds to test the 5 seconds timeout.
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(7000);
if (!tokenSource.IsCancellationRequested)
{
// if not cancelled then save data
App.Data.EmployeeWCF ws = new App.Data.EmployeeWCF ();
returnVal = ws.UpdateData(_employee.Data);
ws.Dispose();
}
return returnVal;
}, tokenSource.Token);
if (await System.Threading.Tasks.Task.WhenAny(someTask, System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Delay(5000)) == someTask)
{
// Completed
this.HideWizardPleaseWait();
if (someTask.Result)
{
this.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK;
}
else
{
this.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Abort;
}
btnOK.Enabled = true;
this.Close();
}
else
{
tokenSource.Cancel();
// Timeout logic
this.HideWizardPleaseWait();
MessageBox.Show("Timeout. Please try again.")
}
}
}
Does async / await / cancellation code is well implemented?
Thanks and appreciate the feedback.
In general, you should use ThrowIfCancellationRequested
. That will complete the returned Task
in a canceled state, rather than in a "ran to completion successfully" state with a false
result.
Other points:
async void
. This should be async Task
unless it's an event handler.Task.Run
over TaskFactory.StartNew
. using
.CancellationTokenSource
as a timeout, then it has special capabilities for that. Creating a separate task via Task.Delay
and Task.WhenAny
isn't necessary.Here's what the updated code would look like:
private async Task SaveData()
{
if (GetActiveServiceRequest() != null)
{
var tokenSource = new System.Threading.CancellationTokenSource(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5));
var token = tokenSource.Token;
this.ShowWizardPleaseWait("Saving data...");
var someTask = System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Run(() =>
{
// Set sleep of 7 seconds to test the 5 seconds timeout.
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(7000);
// if not cancelled then save data
token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
using (App.Data.EmployeeWCF ws = new App.Data.EmployeeWCF())
{
return ws.UpdateData(_employee.Data);
}
}, token);
try
{
var result = await someTask;
// Completed
this.HideWizardPleaseWait();
if (result)
{
this.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK;
}
else
{
this.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Abort;
}
btnOK.Enabled = true;
this.Close();
}
catch (OperationCanceledException)
{
// Timeout logic
this.HideWizardPleaseWait();
MessageBox.Show("Timeout. Please try again.")
}
}
}
