When to Dispose Async

[oliverw]

Is it valid to Dispose an Async Handle within its callback like this?:

var disposer = loop.CreateAsync((handle) =>
{
    tcp.Dispose();

    handle.Dispose();
});

The purpose of this example is to schedule the disposal of another loop-bound resource on the loop thread.

Yes it is, normal once off running for async handle. There are some cases where you need to worry about closure, I typically do something like this:

        asyncHandle = this.loop.CreateAsync(
            handle =>
            {
                var disposible = handle.UserToken as IDisposable;
                disposible?.Dispose();
                handle.Dispose();
            });
        asyncHandle.UserToken = tcp;   // Save to the handle cookie
        asyncHandle.Send();

Thanks for the clarification.
