FaGe's Steamworks.NET Extension for .NET 8+

As you can see, this project is aimed to extend modern features to Steamworks.NET on regular .NET projects that targeting to up to date framework.

Extended features list

• Allow get Steam API CallResult by await, achived by ToValueTask<T>() extension method series on SteamAPICall_t. These methods build on top of original CallResult<T> and can be accessed by using namespace FaGe.Steamworks.NET.Extensions. In current version, there are 2 variants.
  • Method ToValueTask<T>() is suitable for those call-results that don't considering cancellation. Example:

    var queryResult = await SteamUGC.SendQueryUGCRequest(queryHandle).ToValueTask<SteamUGCQueryCompleted_t>();
    

  • Method ToValueTaskWithCancellation<T>() returns a ValueTask<T> and carry out a CancellationTokenSource by the way, you can later cancel this operation by that CancellationTokenSource. Example:

    // do async operation
    var result = SteamUGC.SendQueryUGCRequest(queryHandle).ToValueTaskWithCancellation<SteamUGCQueryCompleted_t>(out var ctsInSomeField);
    
    // somewhere else that want to cancel
    ctsInSomeField.Cancel()
    

• Spawn automatic steam callback dispatcher thread by SteamCallbackDispatch.Singleton.SpawnCallbackDispatchThread() method.
  • Stop the dispatcher thread by the returned CancellationTokenSource. SteamCallbackDispatch.Singleton.StopDispatchSource is also the same. Beware, once the thread is stopped, it can't be restarted.
  • Lived in namespace FaGe.Steamworks.NET.Extensions
