Readme - Code Samples for Chapter 17, Parallel Programming

Parallel Programming covers myriad features available with .NET for parallelization and synchronization. Chapter 11 shows the core functionality of the Task class. In Chapter 17, more of the Task class is shown, such as forming task hierarchies and using value tasks. The chapter goes into issues of parallel programming such as race conditions and deadlocks, and for synchronization, you learn about different features available with the lock keyword, the Monitor, SpinLock, Mutex, Semaphore classes, and more.

This chapter contains the following code samples:

  • Parallel Samples
    • ParallelSamples (using the Parallel class)
    • TaskSamples (using the Task class, task hierarchies)
    • ValueTaskSample (ValueTask)
    • CancellationSamples (CancellationToken)
    • SimpleDataFlowSample (DataFlow)
    • DataFlowSample (a pipeline using multiple blocks)
    • TimersSample (Timer)
    • WindowsAppTimer (Windows App - DispatcherTimer)
  • Synchronization Samples
    • ThradingIssues (race condition and deadlocks)
    • SynchronizationSamples (lock, Interlocked, Monitor)
    • SingletonUsingMutex (Mutex)
    • SemaphoreSample (SemaphoreSlim)
    • EventSample (ManualResetEventSlim)
    • EventSampleWithCountdownEvent (CountdownEvent)
    • BarrierSample (Barrier)
    • ReaderWriterLockSample (ReaderWriterLockSlim)
    • LockAcrossAwait (using locks with multiple threads - with SemaphoreSlim)

The WindowsAppTimer sample needs to have WinUI installed. See WinUI for information on installing and using the WinUI samples.
