PreallocatedWorkItem Class

Definition

A preallocated work item is constructed in advance of its submission to the thread pool, ensuring that the work item is constructed so that it can be submitted to the thread pool when necessary. For example, a PreallocatedWorkItem can be created in case it is needed for a resource deallocation routine, since the resource deallocation routine may be called in circumstances when not enough resources would be available to create the work item.

Note

The ThreadPool API is supported for desktop as well as UWP apps.

Constructors

PreallocatedWorkItem(WorkItemHandler)

Initializes a new work item with a WorkItemHandler delegate, allocating resources for the work item in advance.

PreallocatedWorkItem(WorkItemHandler, WorkItemPriority)

Initializes a new work item with a WorkItemHandler delegate, allocating resources for the work item in advance, and specifies the priority of the work item relative to other work items in the thread pool.

PreallocatedWorkItem(WorkItemHandler, WorkItemPriority, WorkItemOptions)

Initializes a new work item with a WorkItemHandler delegate, allocating resources for the work item in advance, and specifies the priority of the work item relative to other work items in the thread pool. Also specifies how the thread pool will allocate processor time for the work item.

Methods

RunAsync()

Submits the preallocated work item to the thread pool, without requiring any additional resources to be allocated.
