System.Threading.Channels 10.0.0-preview.1.25080.5

About

The System.Threading.Channels library provides types for passing data asynchronously between producers and consumers.

Key Features

Abstractions representing channels for one or more producers to publish data to one or more consumers
APIs focused on asynchronous production and consumption of data
Factory methods for producing multiple kinds of channels

How to Use

using System;
using System.Threading.Channels;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

Channel<int> channel = Channel.CreateUnbounded<int>();

Task producer = Task.Run(async () =>
{
    int i = 0;
    while (true)
    {
        channel.Writer.TryWrite(i++);
        await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
    }
});

Task consumer = Task.Run(async () =>
{
    await foreach (int value in channel.Reader.ReadAllAsync())
    {
        Console.WriteLine(value);
    }
});

await Task.WhenAll(producer, consumer);
