System.Threading.Tasks.Task.ContinueWith Method

Creates a continuation that executes when the target System.Threading.Tasks.Task completes.

Syntax

public Task ContinueWith (Action<Task, object> continuationAction, object state, System.Threading.CancellationToken cancellationToken, TaskContinuationOptions continuationOptions, TaskScheduler scheduler)

Parameters

continuationAction
An action to run when the System.Threading.Tasks.Task completes. When run, the delegate will be passed the completed task and the caller-supplied state object as arguments.
state
An object representing data to be used by the continuation action.
cancellationToken
The System.Threading.CancellationToken that will be assigned to the new continuation task.
continuationOptions
Options for when the continuation is scheduled and how it behaves. This includes criteria, such as TaskContinuationOptions.OnlyOnCanceled, as well as execution options, such as TaskContinuationOptions.ExecuteSynchronously.
scheduler
The System.Threading.Tasks.TaskScheduler to associate with the continuation task and to use for its execution.

Returns

A new continuation System.Threading.Tasks.Task.

Remarks

The returned System.Threading.Tasks.Task will not be scheduled for execution until the current task has completed. If the criteria specified through the continuationOptions parameter are not met, the continuation task will be canceled instead of scheduled.
