WriteOnceBlock<T> Class

Definition

Provides a buffer for receiving and storing at most one element in a network of dataflow blocks.

public sealed class WriteOnceBlock<T> : System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.IPropagatorBlock<T,T>, System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.IReceivableSourceBlock<T>, System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.ISourceBlock<T>, System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow.ITargetBlock<T>
Type Parameters
T

Specifies the type of the data buffered by this dataflow block.

Remarks

Note

The TPL Dataflow Library (System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow namespace) is not distributed with the .NET Framework 4.5. To install the System.Threading.Tasks.Dataflow namespace, open your project in Visual Studio 2012, choose Manage NuGet Packages from the Project menu, and search online for the Microsoft.Tpl.Dataflow package.

Constructors

WriteOnceBlock<T>(Func<T,T>)

Initializes a new WriteOnceBlock<T>.

WriteOnceBlock<T>(Func<T,T>, DataflowBlockOptions)

Initializes a new WriteOnceBlock<T> with the specified DataflowBlockOptions.

Properties

Completion

Gets a Task that represents the asynchronous operation and completion of the dataflow block.

Methods

Complete()

Signals to the IDataflowBlock that it should not accept nor produce any more messages nor consume any more postponed messages.

LinkTo(ITargetBlock<T>, DataflowLinkOptions)

Links the ISourceBlock<TOutput> to the specified ITargetBlock<TInput> .

ToString()

Returns a string that represents the formatted name of this IDataflowBlock instance.

TryReceive(Predicate<T>, T)

Attempts to synchronously receive an available output item from the IReceivableSourceBlock<TOutput>.

Explicit Interface Implementations

IDataflowBlock.Fault(Exception)

Causes the IDataflowBlock to complete in a Faulted state.

IReceivableSourceBlock<T>.TryReceiveAll(IList<T>)

Attempts to synchronously receive all available items from the IReceivableSourceBlock<TOutput>.

ISourceBlock<T>.ConsumeMessage(DataflowMessageHeader, ITargetBlock<T>, Boolean)

Called by a linked ITargetBlock<TInput> to accept and consume a DataflowMessageHeader previously offered by this ISourceBlock<TOutput>.

ISourceBlock<T>.ReleaseReservation(DataflowMessageHeader, ITargetBlock<T>)

Called by a linked ITargetBlock<TInput> to release a previously reserved DataflowMessageHeader by this ISourceBlock<TOutput>.

ISourceBlock<T>.ReserveMessage(DataflowMessageHeader, ITargetBlock<T>)

Called by a linked ITargetBlock<TInput> to reserve a previously offered DataflowMessageHeader by this ISourceBlock<TOutput>.

ITargetBlock<T>.OfferMessage(DataflowMessageHeader, T, ISourceBlock<T>, Boolean)

Offers a message to the ITargetBlock<TInput>, giving the target the opportunity to consume or postpone the message.
