What is the use of TaskCreationOptions when creating a TaskFactory?

  1. To specify options for task creation behavior

  2. To define the priority of each Task

  3. To determine how many Tasks can be created

  4. To manage the lifecycle of created Tasks

The correct answer is: To specify options for task creation behavior

TaskCreationOptions is an enumeration that provides specific options for controlling the behavior of tasks created using the TaskFactory. When you specify TaskCreationOptions during the creation of a task, you effectively inform the Task Scheduler about how the task should behave in relation to its execution. For instance, you can choose options like creating the task as a long-running operation, allowing the task to be attached to the parent or not, or controlling whether a task can run concurrently with others. By using TaskCreationOptions, developers can optimize how their tasks are scheduled and executed, enhancing application performance and resource management. The focus on this aspect makes the option that discusses specifying options for task creation behavior the correct choice as it directly relates to the purpose of TaskCreationOptions within the Task-based Asynchronous Pattern. Other choices may hint at aspects of task management but do not specifically capture the primary function of TaskCreationOptions.
