NoteNote

The HostProtectionAttribute attribute applied to this type or member has the following Resources property value: Synchronization | ExternalThreading. The HostProtectionAttribute does not affect desktop applications (which are typically started by double-clicking an icon, typing a command, or entering a URL in a browser). For more information, see the HostProtectionAttribute class or SQL Server Programming and Host Protection Attributes.

The following example shows how to implement a partitioner that returns a single element at a time:

The static methods on Partitioner(TSource) are all thread-safe and may be used concurrently from multiple threads. However, while a created partitioner is in use, the underlying data source should not be modified, whether from the same thread that is using a partitioner or from a separate thread.
