Asynchronous Programming for C# and Visual Basic. You can avoid performance bottlenecks and enhance the overall responsiveness of your application by using asynchronous programming. However, traditional techniques for writing asynchronous applications can be complicated, making them difficult to write, debug, and maintain. Visual Studio 2012 introduces a simplified approach, async programming, that leverages asynchronous support in the .NET Framework 4.5 and the Windows Runtime.
The compiler does the difficult work that the developer used to do, and your application retains a logical structure that resembles synchronous code. As a result, you get all the advantages of asynchronous programming with a fraction of the effort. This topic contains the following sections. This topic provides an overview of when and how to use async programming and includes links to support topics that contain details and examples.
Asynchrony is essential for activities that are potentially blocking, such as when your application accesses the web. Reference. Life and Times of Anders Hejlsberg | Behind The Code.
