异步文件 I/O
异步操作使您能在不阻塞主线程的情况下执行占用大量资源的 I/O 操作。 在 Windows 8.x 应用商店应用或桌面应用中一个耗时的流操作可能阻塞 UI 线程并让应用看起来好像不工作时,这种性能的考虑就显得尤为重要了。
从 .NET Framework 4.5 开始,I/O 类型包括了异步方法,以简化异步操作。 异步方法在其名称中包括 Async
,例如 ReadAsync、 WriteAsync、 CopyToAsync、 FlushAsync、 ReadLineAsync和 ReadToEndAsync。 这些异步方法基于流类(例如 Stream、 FileStream和 MemoryStream)和用来向流中读出或写入数据的类(例如 TextReader 和 TextWriter)实现。
在 .NET Framework 4 和更早的版本中,你必须使用 BeginRead 和 EndRead 等方法来实现异步 I/O 操作。 这些方法仍然在当前 .NET 版本中可用,从而支持传统的代码;但是,异步方法能帮助你更轻松地实现异步 I/O 操作。
C# 和 Visual Basic 分别具有两个用于异步编程的关键字:
Async
(Visual Basic) 或async
(C#) 修饰符,您可以用来标记包含异步操作的方法。Await
(Visual Basic) 或await
(C#) 运算符,可以应用到异步方法的结果中。
如下面的示例所示,若要实现异步 I/O 操作,请把这些关键字和异步方法结合使用。 有关详细信息,请参阅使用 async 和 await 的异步编程 (C#) 或 使用 Async 和 Await 的异步编程 (Visual Basic)。
下面的示例演示如何使用两个 FileStream 对象把文件从一个目录异步复制到另一个目录。 需要注意 Click 控件的 Button 事件处理程序具有 async
修饰符标记,因为它调用异步方法。
using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows;
using System.IO;
namespace WpfApplication
{
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private async void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
string startDirectory = @"c:\Users\exampleuser\start";
string endDirectory = @"c:\Users\exampleuser\end";
foreach (string filename in Directory.EnumerateFiles(startDirectory))
{
using (FileStream sourceStream = File.Open(filename, FileMode.Open))
{
using (FileStream destinationStream = File.Create(Path.Combine(endDirectory, Path.GetFileName(filename))))
{
await sourceStream.CopyToAsync(destinationStream);
}
}
}
}
}
}
Imports System.IO
Class MainWindow
Private Async Sub Button_Click(sender As Object, e As RoutedEventArgs)
Dim StartDirectory As String = "c:\Users\exampleuser\start"
Dim EndDirectory As String = "c:\Users\exampleuser\end"
For Each filename As String In Directory.EnumerateFiles(StartDirectory)
Using SourceStream As FileStream = File.Open(filename, FileMode.Open)
Using DestinationStream As FileStream = File.Create(EndDirectory + filename.Substring(filename.LastIndexOf("\"c)))
Await SourceStream.CopyToAsync(DestinationStream)
End Using
End Using
Next
End Sub
End Class
下一个例子类似于前面的例子,但是使用 StreamReader 和 StreamWriter 对象以异步方式读取和写入文本文件的内容。
private async void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
string UserDirectory = @"c:\Users\exampleuser\";
using (StreamReader SourceReader = File.OpenText(UserDirectory + "BigFile.txt"))
{
using (StreamWriter DestinationWriter = File.CreateText(UserDirectory + "CopiedFile.txt"))
{
await CopyFilesAsync(SourceReader, DestinationWriter);
}
}
}
public async Task CopyFilesAsync(StreamReader Source, StreamWriter Destination)
{
char[] buffer = new char[0x1000];
int numRead;
while ((numRead = await Source.ReadAsync(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) != 0)
{
await Destination.WriteAsync(buffer, 0, numRead);
}
}
Private Async Sub Button_Click(sender As Object, e As RoutedEventArgs)
Dim UserDirectory As String = "c:\Users\exampleuser\"
Using SourceReader As StreamReader = File.OpenText(UserDirectory + "BigFile.txt")
Using DestinationWriter As StreamWriter = File.CreateText(UserDirectory + "CopiedFile.txt")
Await CopyFilesAsync(SourceReader, DestinationWriter)
End Using
End Using
End Sub
Public Async Function CopyFilesAsync(Source As StreamReader, Destination As StreamWriter) As Task
Dim buffer(4095) As Char
Dim numRead As Integer
numRead = Await Source.ReadAsync(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)
Do While numRead <> 0
Await Destination.WriteAsync(buffer, 0, numRead)
numRead = Await Source.ReadAsync(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)
Loop
End Function
下一个示例演示用于在 Windows 8.x 应用商店应用中以 Stream 的形式打开文件的代码隐藏文件和 XAML 文件,并且通过使用 StreamReader 类的实例来读取其内容。 它使用异步方法以流的形式打开文件并读取其内容。

openPicker.SuggestedStartLocation = PickerLocationId.DocumentsLibrary;
