Parameters

action

The work to execute asynchronously

cancellationToken

A cancellation token that should be used to cancel the work

Returns

A task that represents the work queued to execute in the ThreadPool.

Remarks

The Task.Run(Action, System.Threading.CancellationToken) method is a simpler alternative to the TaskFactory.StartNew(Action, System.Threading.CancellationToken) method. It creates a task with the following default values:

• Its Task.CreationOptions property value is TaskCreationOptions.DenyChildAttach.

• It uses the default task scheduler.
