Canceling/Aborting long running Handler about rebus HOT 3 CLOSED

You could create your own CancellationTokenSource + a task on a separate thread to check for what ever flag you need. You'll then need to periodically check the cancellation token.

Here's a basic example

var myCancellationToken = new CancellationTokenSource();
var cancellationTask = Task.Factory.StartNew(async () =>
{
    await Task.Delay(5000);
    await myCancellationToken.CancelAsync();
});

while (!myCancellationToken.IsCancellationRequested)
{
    Console.WriteLine("I'm doing a long running task...");
    await Task.Delay(1000);
}

from rebus.

Thanks for the tip @asherw . I'm guessing there is nothing built into Rebus already for this and we need to manage the cancellationTokens ourselves and use them to signal a handler to stop what it is doing. Will try out this method and see how it works out in my case.

Exactly... unfortunately, Rebus cannot help you with this, so this requires a bit of creativity and CancellationToken juggling. 😅
