How async/await will change our world.

well…using Radical AsyncWorker we can write something like:

public void Do()
{
	AsyncWorker.Using( this.Id )
		.Configure( cfg =>
		{
			cfg.Before = e =>
			{

				this.Status = "Running: " + e.Argument;
			};
 
			cfg.After = e =>
			{
				this.Status = "Completed: " + e.Argument;
			};
		} )
		.Execute( e =>
		{
			//something long running...
			Thread.Sleep( 2000 );
		} );
}

Cool, interesting, quite easy to read and a really interesting experiment, for me, in writing a complex and intellisense driven fluent interface…
But…
…in a few months everything will drastically change:

public async void Do()
{
	this.Status = "Running: " + this.Id;
 
	await Task.Factory.StartNew( () =>
	{
		//something long running...
		Thread.Sleep( 2000 );
	} );
 
	this.Status = "Completed: " + this.Id;
}

Amazing
