DialogTaskHandler

Uses simple WinForms dialog boxes to inform the user about the progress of tasks.

ForEachTask

Provides a static factory method for ForEachTask<T> as an alternative to calling the constructor to exploit type inference.

ForEachTask<T>

A task that executes an action once for each element of a collection.

GuiTaskHandlerBase

Common base class for WinForms ITaskHandler implementations.

PercentageTask

A task that executes an System.Action<T> and reports progress in percent.

ResultTask

Provides a static factory method for ResultTask<T> as an alternative to calling the constructor to exploit type inference.

ResultTask<T>

A task that executes a callback and the provides a result. Only completion is reported, no intermediate progress.

SilentTaskHandler

Executes tasks silently and suppresses any questions.

TaskBase

Abstract base class for ITask implementations.

TaskHandlerBase

TaskHandlerExtensions

Structs

Represents a progress snapshot of an ITask.

Interfaces

IResultTask<T>

A task the provides a result.

ITask

Represents an operation that can be cancelled and have its progress tracked.

Used to run and track ITasks and ask the user questions. Specific implementations provide different kinds of user interfaces.

Enums

Represents different states a (usually Web- or IO-related) task can be in.

Verbosity

Delegates

PercentProgressCallback
