How to determine whether Task.Run is completed within a loop

Question

This may be an odd question and it is really for my educational purpose so I can apply it in future scenarios that may come up.

I am using C#.

IMO you do not need the timer. Using Task Continuation you subscribe to the done event:

System.Threading.Tasks.Task
.Run(() => 
{
    // simulate processing
    for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("do something {0}", i + 1);
    }
})
.ContinueWith(t => Console.WriteLine("done."));

The output is:

do something 1
do something 2
.
.
do something 9
do something 10
done

Your code could look like this:

var webTask = Task.Run(() =>
{
    try 
    { 
        wcf.UploadMotionDynamicRaw(bytes);  //my web service
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        //deal with error
    }
}).ContinueWith(t => taskCounter++);

With task continuation you could even differentiate between failed and success process result, if you want to count only successfull tasks - using the TaskContinuationOptrions.
