c# - 延迟任务开始的正确方法

Question

我想安排一个任务在 x 毫秒后开始，并能够在它开始之前(或刚好在任务开始时)取消它。

第一次尝试是这样的

var _cancelationTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();

var token = _cancelationTokenSource.Token;
Task.Factory.StartNew(() =>
    {
        token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
        Thread.Sleep(100);
        token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
    }).ContinueWith(t =>
    {
        token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
        DoWork();
        token.ThrowIfCancellationRequested();
    }, token);

但我觉得应该有更好的方法，因为这会在 sleep 时用完一个线程，在此期间它可以被取消。

我还有哪些其他选择？

赞Damien_The_Unbeliever mentioned ，异步 CTP 包括 Task.Delay。幸运的是，我们有 Reflector:

public static class TaskEx
{
    static readonly Task _sPreCompletedTask = GetCompletedTask();
    static readonly Task _sPreCanceledTask = GetPreCanceledTask();

    public static Task Delay(int dueTimeMs, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
    {
        if (dueTimeMs < -1)
            throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("dueTimeMs", "Invalid due time");
        if (cancellationToken.IsCancellationRequested)
            return _sPreCanceledTask;
        if (dueTimeMs == 0)
            return _sPreCompletedTask;

        var tcs = new TaskCompletionSource<object>();
        var ctr = new CancellationTokenRegistration();
        var timer = new Timer(delegate(object self)
        {
            ctr.Dispose();
            ((Timer)self).Dispose();
            tcs.TrySetResult(null);
        });
        if (cancellationToken.CanBeCanceled)
            ctr = cancellationToken.Register(delegate
                                                 {
                                                     timer.Dispose();
                                                     tcs.TrySetCanceled();
                                                 });

        timer.Change(dueTimeMs, -1);
        return tcs.Task;
    }

    private static Task GetPreCanceledTask()
    {
        var source = new TaskCompletionSource<object>();
        source.TrySetCanceled();
        return source.Task;
    }

    private static Task GetCompletedTask()
    {
        var source = new TaskCompletionSource<object>();
        source.TrySetResult(null);
        return source.Task;
    }
}
