AsyncCompletedEventArgs.UserState Property

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Gets the unique identifier for the asynchronous task.

Namespace:  System.ComponentModel
Assembly:  System (in System.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property UserState As Object
public Object UserState { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Object
An object reference that uniquely identifies the asynchronous task; otherwise, nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if no value has been set.

Remarks

If a class supports multiple asynchronous methods, or multiple invocations of a single method, you can determine which task raised the MethodNameCompleted event by checking the value of the UserState property. Your code will have to track these tokens, known as task IDs, as their corresponding asynchronous tasks start and complete.

The value of this property is set during the original call to the asynchronous method that started the task.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use UserState to track the lifetime of asynchronous operations. The local variable used to store the values tracked by UserState is named taskID in this example. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the System.ComponentModel.AsyncOperationManager class.

    ' Start GetPersons as an asynchronous process. 
    Public Sub GetPersonsAsync(ByVal itemsCount As Integer, _
                               ByVal name As String, _
                               ByVal taskId As Object)

        Dim asyncOp As AsyncOperation

        ' First make sure this is not an attempt to start the 
        ' same thread twice. Multiple threads will access the 
        ' taskID Dictionary, so it must be locked to serialize 
        ' access. 
        SyncLock Me
            If taskIDs.ContainsKey(taskId) Then
                Throw New ArgumentException _
                    ("Task ID already exists", "taskID")
            End If

            ' Create a new AsyncOperation object 
            ' and put it in the taskID Dictionary. 
            asyncOp = AsyncOperationManager.CreateOperation(taskId)
            taskIDs(taskId) = asyncOp
        End SyncLock

        ' Start the asynchronous process. 
        Dim myThread As New Thread(AddressOf StartThread)
        myThread.Start(New ThreadStartParms With _
             {.ItemsCount = itemsCount, .Name = name, .AsyncOp = asyncOp})

    End Sub

    Private Sub StartThread(ByVal parms As ThreadStartParms)
        GetPersons(parms.ItemsCount, parms.Name, parms.AsyncOp)

// Start GetPersons as an asynchronous process.

    (int itemsCount, string name, object taskId)

        asyncOp =
            AsyncOperationManager.CreateOperation(taskId);
        taskIDs[taskId] = asyncOp;
    }

    // Start the asynchronous process.
    // The following line is the least amount of code to do 
    // this.  It uses a lambda expression.  Following it is 
    // commented code showing an alternative method.

    new Thread(() =>
        { GetPersons(itemsCount, name, asyncOp); }).Start();

    // The alternative is to include two lines here and
    // define separately the method that they reference and
    // a class you can use to pass parameters to Thread.Start:

    //   Thread myThread = 
    //       new Thread(new ThreadStart(StartThread));
    //   myThread.Start(new ThreadStartParms 
    //       {.ItemsCount=itemsCount, 
    //        .Name=name, 
    //        .AsyncOp=asyncOp });

    //   void StartThread()
    //   {
    //      GetPersons(itemsCount, name, asyncOp);
    //   }

    //   public class ThreadStartParms)
    //   {
    //       public int ItemsCount { get; set; }
    //       public string Name { get; set; }
