Run multiple instances of same method asynchronously?

Question

My requirement is quite weird.

I have SomeMethod() which calls GetDataFor().

public void SomeMethod()
{
    for(int i = 0         


        

Answer 1

The code actually makes no sense.

How task will distinguish between different calls for awaiting? It is getting over-written.

It does not get overwritten. Because...

for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
    var task = Task.Run(() => GetDataFor(i));
    var data = await task;
}

This is WAITING for every request to finish before continuing the loop. Await waits for the end.

Which means the whole task thing is irrelevant - nothing happens in parallel here. You can cut some minor overhead by doing it without a task.

I suspect the OP wanted to achieve something that he simply did not and he was not spending enough time debugging to realize he has single threaded the whole loop again.
