	asyncResult As IAsyncResult _
) As Boolean
C#

Parameters

asyncResult

Type: System.IAsyncResult

An IAsyncResult that references the pending asynchronous operation.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean

Example

The following code example creates a table asynchronously if it does not exist.

 Copy Code
static void CreateTableIfNotExistsAsync(CloudStorageAccount storageAccount)
{
    // Create service client for credentialed access to the Table service.
    CloudTableClient tableClient = new CloudTableClient(storageAccount.TableEndpoint.ToString(),
        storageAccount.Credentials);

    // Begin the operation to create a new table.
    tableClient.BeginCreateTableIfNotExist("Categories", CreateTableIfNotExistsAsyncCallback, tableClient);
}

public static void CreateTableIfNotExistsAsyncCallback(IAsyncResult result)
{
    CloudTableClient tableClient = (CloudTableClient)result.AsyncState;

    // End the operation.
    if (tableClient.EndCreateTableIfNotExist(result))
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Table created."); 
    }
