BackgroundWorker doesn't work Async

Question

I made today small test to know more about BackgroundWorker.

In my opinion it doesn't work in asychronuos mode. First it did Do1 and next Do2. Do2 is shorter, Do1 takes more time, but program waits for Do1 finished and next start Do2. Am I right? Thank you!

           BackgroundWorker bw = new BackgroundWorker();
           bw.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(Do1);
           bw.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(Do2);
           bw.RunWorkerAsync();

           int i =0;
           while ( bw.IsBusy)

You added two event handlers to the same BackgroundWorker .
Like all other events, the DoWork event will run all of its handlers in order, synchronously.

To run two separate things asynchronously, you need two BackgroundWorker s.

However, you should use Task.Run() instead; it's much simpler & more composable.
