How to cancel a Task using CancellationToken?

问题

So I've this code:

//CancelationToken
CancellationTokenSource src = new CancellationTokenSource();
CancellationToken ct = src.Token;
ct.Register(() => Console.WriteLine("Abbruch des Tasks"));
//Task
Task t = new Task(() =>
{
    System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
    if (ct.IsCancellationRequested)
    {
        try
        {
            //Throw
            ct.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();                        
        }
        catch (OperationCanceledException)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(
                "ThrowIfCancellationRequested() liefert eben eine Exception");
        }
    }             

}, ct);
//Run Task and Cancel
t.Start();
src.CancelAfter(350);
t.Wait();

// Get Information
Console.WriteLine("Canceled: {0} . Finished: {1} . Error: {2}",
                    t.IsCanceled, t.IsCompleted, t.IsFaulted);

So in this case I canceled my Task but my output in the end is: "Canceled: False . Finished: True . Error: False"

In my opinion it should be "Canceled:True . Finished:False". Why do I get this result? Because I try to catch the exception?

I've tried it without the try - catch block, but then my program stops because of the OperationCanceledException. Can somebody help me?

回答1:

You're swallowing the exception, thus the task is flagged as finished as you actually handle the exception and it doesn't propagate outwards.

Instead, don't catch the exception inside the delegate, catch it outside:

void Main()
{
    CancellationTokenSource src = new CancellationTokenSource();
    CancellationToken ct = src.Token;
    ct.Register(() => Console.WriteLine("Abbruch des Tasks"));

    Task t = Task.Run(() =>
    {
        System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
        ct.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
    }, ct);

    src.Cancel();
    try
    {
        t.Wait();
    }
    catch (AggregateException e)
    {
        // Don't actually use an empty catch clause, this is
        // for the sake of demonstration.
    }

    Console.WriteLine("Canceled: {0} . Finished: {1} . Error: {2}",
                       t.IsCanceled, t.IsCompleted, t.IsFaulted);
}
