IAsyncResult Interface

Represents the status of an asynchronous operation.

For a list of all members of this type, see IAsyncResult Members.

Classes that Implement IAsyncResult

Class Description
AsyncResult Encapsulates the results of an asynchronous operation on an asynchronous delegate.
WebClientAsyncResult Provides an implementation of IAsyncResult for use by XML Web service proxies to implement the standard asynchronous method pattern.

Remarks

The IAsyncResult interface is implemented by classes containing methods that can operate asynchronously. It is the return type of methods that initiate an asynchronous operation, such as FileStream.BeginRead, and is the type of the third parameter of methods that conclude an asynchronous operation, such as FileStream.EndRead. IAsyncResult objects are also passed to methods invoked by AsyncCallback delegates when an asynchronous operation completes.

An object that supports the IAsyncResult interface stores state information for an asynchronous operation, and provides a synchronization object to allow threads to be signaled when the operation completes.

For a detailed description of how the IAsyncResult interface is used, see the Asynchronous Programming Overview topic.

Example

[Visual Basic, C#, C++] The following sample demonstrates using an IAsyncResult to obtain the return value of an asynchronous operation.

  [Visual Basic] 
' Asynchronous Callback method.
Public Shared Sub MyCallback(ar As IAsyncResult)
   ' Obtains the last parameter of the delegate call.
   Dim value As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(ar.AsyncState)
   
   ' Obtains return value from the delegate call using EndInvoke.
   Dim aResult As AsyncResult = CType(ar, AsyncResult)
   Dim temp As SampSyncSqrDelegate = CType(aResult.AsyncDelegate, SampSyncSqrDelegate)
   Dim result As Integer = temp.EndInvoke(ar)
   
   Console.Write("Simple.SomeMethod (AsyncCallback): Result of ")
   Console.WriteLine("{0} in SampleSynchronized.Square is {1} ", value, result)
End Sub 'MyCallback  

[C#] 
// Asynchronous Callback method.
public static void MyCallback(IAsyncResult ar) {

    // Obtains the last parameter of the delegate call.
    int value = Convert.ToInt32(ar.AsyncState);

    // Obtains return value from the delegate call using EndInvoke.
    AsyncResult aResult = (AsyncResult)ar;
    SampSyncSqrDelegate temp = (SampSyncSqrDelegate)aResult.AsyncDelegate;
    int result = temp.EndInvoke(ar);

    Console.Write("Simple.SomeMethod (AsyncCallback): Result of ");
    Console.WriteLine("{0} in SampleSynchronized.Square is {1} ", value, result);
}

[C++] 
// Asynchronous Callback method.
public:
static void MyCallback(IAsyncResult* ar) 
{
    // Obtains the last parameter of the delegate call.
    int value = Convert::ToInt32(ar->AsyncState);

    // Obtains return value from the delegate call using EndInvoke.
    AsyncResult* aResult = dynamic_cast<AsyncResult*>(ar);
    SampSyncSqrDelegate* temp = static_cast<SampSyncSqrDelegate*>(aResult->AsyncDelegate);
    int result = temp->EndInvoke(ar);

    Console::Write(S"Simple::SomeMethod (AsyncCallback): Result of ");
    Console::WriteLine(S" {0} in SampleSynchronized::Square is {1} ", __box(value), __box(result));
}

[Visual Basic, C#, C++] The following sample demonstrates waiting for an asynchronous operation to complete.
