SemaphoreSlim Await Priority
.net, async-await, asynchronous, c#, semaphore
Solution
No, there are no priorities in `SemaphoreSlim`, whether you're using synchronous or asynchronous locking.
There is very rarely ever a need for priorities with asynchronous locks. Usually these kinds of problems have more elegant solutions if you take a step back and look at the bigger picture.
Problem
I am wondering if `SemaphoreSlim` has anything like a priority when calling Await. I have not been able to find anything, but maybe someone has done something like this before. The idea is, that if I need to, an await can be called on the semaphore later on with a higher priority, and it will allow the await to return first.
