Using Start and Return - Course Introduction to Reactive Extensions - Part 3 | .net courses

Duration:  18 minutes

Summary: In this video, we continue our discussion of Reactive Extensions. We will create a console application to experiment with using Start and Return. Using Start() we can let Rx manage the asynchronicity of calling a method. In the example we will be passing an array and we need to sum its values. Along the way, we print the Thread id to know on which thread the method is running. We will make the method sleep for 2 seconds, and call the Done method in Subscribe.

We will apply the same logic using Return to see the effect.

Methodology of the development of example: Good coding standard and simplified design to illustrate the key points.

Technology Used: Reactive Extensions and Visual Studio 2010
