DataflowBlock::Choose<T1, T2, T3> Method (ISourceBlock<T1>^, Action<T1>^, ISourceBlock<T2>^, Action<T2>^, ISourceBlock<T3>^, Action<T3>^)
Monitors three dataflow sources, invoking the provided handler for whichever source makes data available first.
Assembly: System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow (in System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.dll)
public: generic<typename T1, typename T2, typename T3> static Task<int>^ Choose( ISourceBlock<T1>^ source1, Action<T1>^ action1, ISourceBlock<T2>^ source2, Action<T2>^ action2, ISourceBlock<T3>^ source3, Action<T3>^ action3 )
Parameters
- source1
-
Type:
System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow::ISourceBlock<T1>^
The first source.
- action1
-
Type:
System::Action<T1>^
The handler to execute on data from the first source.
- source2
-
Type:
System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow::ISourceBlock<T2>^
The second source.
- action2
-
Type:
System::Action<T2>^
The handler to execute on data from the second source.
- source3
-
Type:
System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow::ISourceBlock<T3>^
The third source.
- action3
-
Type:
System::Action<T3>^
The handler to execute on data from the third source.
Return Value
Type: System.Threading.Tasks::Task<Int32>^A Task<TResult> that represents the asynchronous choice. If all sources are completed prior to the choice completing, the resulting task will be canceled. When one of the sources has data available and successfully propagates it to the choice, the resulting task will complete when the handler completes; if the handler throws an exception, the task will end in the Faulted state and will contain the unhandled exception. Otherwise, the task will end with its Result set to the 0-based index of the source.
This method will only consume an element from one of the data sources, never more than one.
Type Parameters
- T1
Specifies type of data contained in the first source.
- T2
Specifies type of data contained in the second source.
- T3
Specifies type of data contained in the third source.
