Namespace: System.Threading.Tasks
Assembly: System.Threading (in System.Threading.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Function ContinueWhenAny(Of TAntecedentResult) ( _ tasks As Task(Of TAntecedentResult)(), _ continuationFunction As Func(Of Task(Of TAntecedentResult), TResult), _ continuationOptions As TaskContinuationOptions _ ) As Task(Of TResult)

Visual Basic (Declaration)

Public Function ContinueWhenAny(Of TAntecedentResult) ( _
	tasks As Task(Of TAntecedentResult)(), _
	continuationFunction As Func(Of Task(Of TAntecedentResult), TResult), _
	continuationOptions As TaskContinuationOptions _
) As Task(Of TResult)

C#
public Task<TResult> ContinueWhenAny<TAntecedentResult>( Task<TAntecedentResult>[] tasks, Func<Task<TAntecedentResult>, TResult> continuationFunction, TaskContinuationOptions continuationOptions )

Parameters

tasks: Type: array< System.Threading.Tasks..::.Task<(Of <(TAntecedentResult>)>) >[]()[]
The array of tasks from which to continue when one task completes.

continuationFunction: Type: System..::.Func<(Of <(Task<(Of <(TAntecedentResult>)>), TResult>)>)
The function delegate to execute when one task in the tasks array completes.

continuationOptions: Type: System.Threading.Tasks..::.TaskContinuationOptions
The TaskContinuationOptions value that controls the behavior of the created continuation Task.

Type Parameters

TAntecedentResult: The type of the result of the antecedent tasks.

Return Value

The new continuation Task<(Of <(TResult>)>).

Remarks

The NotOn* and OnlyOn* TaskContinuationOptions, which constrain for which TaskStatus states a continuation will be executed, are illegal with ContinueWhenAny.
