C# Async Fundamentals LiveLessons (Video Training
1 online resource (1 video file, approximately 3 hr., 7 min.)
C# Async Fundamentals LiveLessons provides developers with a practical introduction to Async and is a one-stop-shop to get you on the road to programming asyncronously. As one of the most important new feature in the C# language, Async is an integral part of the Windows Runtime library. Developers will need to use the async / await features in most, if not all, of their upcoming development efforts. With async methods baked into more and more of the underlying libraries, developers will need strong skills around these features. In this video training, C# expert and bestselling author Bill Wagner teaches the basics of C# async and await, and the Task Asynchronous Programming Model. Lesson 1 provides the basis for putting async and await into practice in your daily development efforts. All the remaining Lessons are designed to take you through a series of common mistakes developers make using async and await. In Lesson 2 "Sync over Async", you'll examine where sync over async can creep into an application, and learn how to remove to ensure you don't suffer from its effects. In Lesson 3 you'll explore the perils of async void methods, an issue at the heart of the C# compiler team. In Lesson 4 he'll get you up-to-speed on techniques to ensure that you avoid forcing async methods to run serially. In Lesson 5 you'll learn techniques for unit testing async methods. And to tie it all together, Lesson 6 will recap the fundamental practices and the implementation of async and await. Skill Level This topic should be of interest to anyone developing using the C# language. This includes Windows Server, Windows 8, Windows Phone, MonoDroid, and Mono Touch developers at the following skill level: Beginner Intermediate What You Will Learn Learn to avoid the sync over async anti-pattern. Learn how to ensure that you can recover from errors in async tasks. Learn to structure async code for better responsiveness. Learn how to construct unit tests for async code. Learn how to construct async APIs that express clarity to your users. Who Should Take This Course Developers looking for a practical introduction to C# async. Course Requirements Some experience with C# programming. A passing familiarity with async /await features is helpful.
