Task Parallel Library

[EI]

I am using C# with NET4.0. I would like to use the object "Task" in system.Threading.Tasks for parallel processing. But "Task" is already defined in DAQmx namespace. I find that I will have to explictly state the namespace (either system.Threading.Tasks or NationalInstruments.DAQmx) to distinguish which "Task" I am referring to every time I use "Task". Is there an easier way to do this.

Best Regards

In C#, you can declare an alias for a type with a using directive, like:

    using DAQmxTask = NationalInstruments.DAQmx.Task;
    using ParallelTask = System.Threading.Tasks.Task;

Thanks a million for quick reply.

Much appreciated.
