Lab Assignment #10 - Service Clients

Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.

This lab has you practice writing asynchronous code using the .net async await pattern. You will use
what you learn here in lab #11 to build a WPF client for a file upload/download service. That essentially
changes the console client you saw demonstrated today into a WPF client that uses asynchronous processing.
Requirements:
-
Review the C# Threads and Tasks code demos from Lecture #9. Pay particular attention to the
TaskWithContinuation demo which uses async await in the function getSumWithAwaitAsync(...).
-
Write a small C# console application that searches a text file for a specified string asynchronously
by awaiting on a search function. The code after the await acts as a callback, so you will announce
your results in that code.
-
Modify your application to search for the text asynchronously in all the files in a test folder. Do
that by calling your async text search function while looping over all the files in the test folder.
