Async synchronization primitives, async collections, TPL and dataflow extensions. The JoinableTaskFactory allows synchronously blocking the UI thread for async work. This package is applicable to any .NET application (not just Visual Studio).
Features
- Async versions of many threading synchronization primitives
AsyncAutoResetEvent
AsyncBarrier
AsyncCountdownEvent
AsyncManualResetEvent
AsyncReaderWriterLock
AsyncSemaphore
ReentrantSemaphore

AsyncLazyInitializer
AsyncLocal<T>
AsyncQueue<T>
- Await extension methods
- Await on a
TaskScheduler
to switch to it. Switch to a background thread withawait TaskScheduler.Default;
- Await on a
Task
with a timeout - Await on a
Task
with cancellation
- Await on a
JoinableTaskFactory
that allows you to schedule asynchronous or synchronous work that does not deadlock with the UI thread even when the UI thread needs to synchronously block on the result.
