I am not sure whether this is possible, so here me out:
I have a sequence of action to perform multiple
async Task MethodA(...)
{
// some code
// a call to specific Async IO bound method
// some code
}
there are also MethodB()
, MethodC()
, etc, and all of the have exactly the same code, except for the call to specific Async IO bound method. I am trying to find a way to pass a task pointer to a method, so that we can execute it later in a Method().
What i am currently doing is this:
private async Task Method(Func<Task<Entity>> func)
{
// some code
var a = await task.Run(func);
// some code
}
var task = async () => await CallToIOBoundTask(params);
Method(task);
This code, however, pulls a new thread each time, which is not required for IO bound task, and should be avoided.
So, is there a way to refactor the code so that no ThreadPool thread is used? A goal is to have a code like this:
private async Task Method(Task<Entity> task)
{
// some code
var a = await task;
// some code
}
It is also important to mention that different IO calls have different method signatures. Also, a task can start to execute only in Method()
body, and not before.
