Task.Run

Question

User1453549677 posted

I copied this Task example from the web and it gives a compiler error on Task.Run (Task does not contain a definiton for 'Run')

using System;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      ShowThreadInfo("Application");

      var t = Task.Run(() => ShowThreadInfo("Task") );
      t.Wait();
   }

   static void ShowThreadInfo(String s)
   {
      Console.WriteLine("{0} Thread ID: {1}",
                        s, Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId);
   }
}

What framework version are you targeting?  You'll need 4 or above.
