Combines two cancellation tokens while avoiding a linked CancellationTokenSource allocation when one is unnecessary.

Installation

dotnet add package Soenneker.Extensions.CancellationTokens

Usage

using Soenneker.Extensions.CancellationTokens;

CancellationToken combined = requestAborted.Link(
    timeoutSource.Token,
    out CancellationTokenSource? linkedSource);

using (linkedSource)
{
    await PerformWork(combined);
}

The out source is owned by the caller. Keep it alive for the entire operation and dispose it afterward to unregister callbacks from the input tokens. It is null whenever no linked source was needed; disposing a nullable source with using is safe.

Allocation behavior

first.Link(second, out linkedSource) follows these paths:

Inputs Returned token linkedSource
Tokens are identical That token null
Either token is already canceled An already-canceled input token null
Only one token can be canceled The cancelable token null
Neither token can be canceled The default/non-cancelable token null
Both distinct tokens can be canceled A token linked to both inputs Newly allocated source

When a linked source is created, canceling either parent cancels the returned token. Canceling the linked source cancels only the combined token, not either parent. Disposal removes the link; it does not dispose or cancel the input sources.

This helper composes cancellation signals only. Work must still observe the returned token, and cancellation does not imply rollback or immediate interruption.
