Support for .Net Tasks (System.Threading.Tasks)
When looking at our pure paths it appears that anytime we start up a Task, the pure path does not trace through these code executions. Is there support for Tasks in the .Net Thread Sensors. We start the majority of our tasks via the System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Factory.StartNew function.
Thanks!
hi Scott,
yes, dynaTrace supports .NET Tasks. as long as you have the ".NET Thread Tagging" Sensor placed, you should see the PurePath follow these Task executions.
I just double-checked that System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Factory.StartNew() also calls the method that this sensor relies on, so this should work out-of-the-box.
if you experience problems with this, you should at first check if this sensor is enabled.
best, Christian
also no further purepath data is showing for the original thread after invoking the StartNew. I would at least expect the original thread to finish instrumentation.
