同步函数的异步化
先说下异步(Asynchronous)和多线程(Multi-threading)的区别:异步是相对与同步来说的,一般来说意味着非阻塞;异步在具体实现上是用多线程来实现的,但好处是你不用操心和管理多线程,它给你封装了一个干净的接口来调用。当然,在linux和javascript环境下,你要理解异步一般要理解事件驱动机制/Event loop: 《理解Event loop》。这里讲的主要是.NET。同步函数异步化有很多好处,但异步化是有开销的:《Understanding the Costs of Async and Await》。具体来说,下列场合适合用异步化:
- 耗时的I/O操作,例如:读文件I/O,访问网络资源网络I/O….
- 耗时的CPU的操作:建议配合多线程,例如Task.Factory启动新的线程,在线程里面进行异步访问
举例,这里有个同步方法Process(例子不太恰当,应该是耗时的I/O操作的例子比较好)
public class Test { public int Process(int a) { System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000); return a + 1; } }
现在把这个同步方法改造为异步方法:
namespace ConsoleApplication6 { public class Test { public int Process(int a) { System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000); return a + 1; } public void ProcessAsync(int a, Action<int> callBackAction) { Func<int> func = () => { System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000); return a + 1; }; func.BeginInvoke((ar) => { var result = func.EndInvoke(ar); callBackAction.Invoke(result); }, null); } } }
测试方法:
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Threading.Tasks; namespace ConsoleApplication6 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { var tester = new Test(); Console.WriteLine("Sync start"); var result1 = tester.Process(1); Console.WriteLine("Sync finish: " + result1); Console.WriteLine("Async start"); tester.ProcessAsync(2, (r) => { Console.WriteLine("Async finish: " + r + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); }); Console.WriteLine("Async continue" + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); Console.Read(); } } }
输出结果:
Sync start (wait 3 seconds) Sync finish: 2 Async start Async continue (wait 3 seconds) Async finish: 3
如果多加几个操作,看看起了几个线程:
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Threading.Tasks; namespace ConsoleApplication6 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { var tester = new Test(); Console.WriteLine("Sync start"); var result1 = tester.Process(1); Console.WriteLine("Sync finish: " + result1); Console.WriteLine("Async start"); tester.ProcessAsync(2, (r) => { Console.WriteLine("Async finish: " + r + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); }); Console.WriteLine("Async continue" + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); Console.WriteLine("Async start"); tester.ProcessAsync(2, (r) => { Console.WriteLine("Async finish: " + r + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); }); Console.WriteLine("Async continue" + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); Console.WriteLine("Async start"); tester.ProcessAsync(2, (r) => { Console.WriteLine("Async finish: " + r + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); }); Console.WriteLine("Async continue" + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); Console.WriteLine("Async start"); tester.ProcessAsync(2, (r) => { Console.WriteLine("Async finish: " + r + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); }); Console.WriteLine("Async continue" + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); Console.Read(); } } }
输出:
Sync start Sync finish: 2 Async start Async continue thread id: 9 Async start Async continue thread id: 9 Async start Async continue thread id: 9 Async start Async continue thread id: 9 Async finish: 3 thread id: 13 Async finish: 3 thread id: 11 Async finish: 3 thread id: 10 Async finish: 3 thread id: 12
说明背后是用了多线程。
现在我们再用async和await关键字来改造一下:
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Threading.Tasks; namespace ConsoleApplication6 { public class Test { public void ProcessAsync(int a, Action<int> callBackAction) { Func<int> func = () => { System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000); return a + 1; }; func.BeginInvoke((ar) => { var result = func.EndInvoke(ar); callBackAction.Invoke(result); }, null); } public Task<int> TaskProcessAsync(Action<int> callBackAction) { var tcs = new TaskCompletionSource<int>(); ProcessAsync(3, (r) => { callBackAction.Invoke(r); }); return tcs.Task; } public async Task<int> QueryProcess(Action<int> callBackAction) { int i = await TaskProcessAsync(callBackAction); return i; } } public class Class1 { public async Task<int> Test() { var tester = new Test(); var i = await tester.QueryProcess((r) => { Console.WriteLine("await Async finish: " + r + " thread id: " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId); }); return i; } } class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { var t = new Class1(); t.Test(); Console.Read(); } } }
