Excellent explanation, thank you so much! I'm a newbie to C#, hence my experiment with this. Did not expect this at all, but definitely something to keep in mind!

Thanks! The thing is, it does not time out. I would have seen the exception then. I suspect there's an issue with the underlying code. Despite the documentation saying that it is thread safe, it appears that it is not (at least not 100%). The Status property is set to 'RanToCompletion', but the IsCompleted is 'false'. Until I log it again, then it is true. It is also logged immediately as 'true' when I log log it from the same thread context, i.e. in the OnCompleted callback. But never mind, I was just experimenting a bit.

You could take a look at SWIG: https://www.swig.org/Doc3.0/CSharp.html

Thanks for the quick reply and the suggested improvements.

The weird thing is that it all works when using the 'await' keyword, which obviously is the recommended way to go. I was just surprised to see the 'IsCompleted' property not being set to 'True', while the status of the task is actually 'RanToCompletion'. It just doesn't add up.
