Type Definitions
Type |
Description |
|---|---|
type Async<'T> |
A compositional asynchronous computation, which, when run, will eventually produce a value of type T, or else raises an exception. |
type Async |
This static class holds members for creating and manipulating asynchronous computations. |
type AsyncBuilder |
The type of the async operator, used to build workflows for asynchronous computations. |
A handle to a capability to reply to a PostAndReply message. |
|
Event implementations for an arbitrary type of delegate. |
|
Event implementations for a delegate types following the standard .NET Framework convention of a first 'sender' argument. |
|
type Event<'T> |
Event implementations for the IEvent<_> type. |
type Handler<'T> |
A delegate type associated with the F# event type IEvent<_> |
First class event values for arbitrary delegate types. |
|
First class event values for CLI events conforming to CLI Framework standards. |
|
A message-processing agent which executes an asynchronous computation. |
Type Abbreviations
Type |
Description |
|---|---|
type IEvent<'T> |
First-class listening points (i.e. objects that permit you to register a callback activated when the event is triggered). |
type lazy<'T> |
An abbreviation for the type of delayed computations. |
type Lazy<'T> |
An abbreviation for the type of delayed computations. |
