System.Security.Cryptography.CryptoStream.FlushAsync Method

Clears all buffers for the current stream asynchronously, causes any buffered data to be written to the underlying device, and monitors cancellation requests.

Syntax

public override System.Threading.Tasks.Task FlushAsync (System.Threading.CancellationToken cancellationToken)

Parameters

cancellationToken
The token to monitor for cancellation requests. The default value is System.Threading.CancellationToken.None.

Returns

A task that represents the asynchronous flush operation.

Remarks

You must preface your call to CryptoStream.FlushAsync(System.Threading.CancellationToken) with the await (C#) or Await (Visual Basic) operator to suspend execution of the method until the task is complete. For more information, see Asynchronous Programming with Async and Await (C# and Visual Basic).

If the operation is canceled before it completes, the returned task contains the System.Threading.Tasks.TaskStatus.Canceled value for the System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Status property.
