As per the title really.
I have a long running task that polls a message queue.
Occasionally I may wish to stop the task, do some work and then start it again. What is the correct way of doing this?

A task is something you want done. A thread is one of the many possible workers which performs that task. In . NET 4.0 terms, a Task represents an asynchronous operation. Thread(s) are used to complete that operation by breaking the work up into chunks and assigning to separate threads.
Wait method. A call to the Wait method blocks the calling thread until the single class instance has completed execution. The following example calls the parameterless Wait() method to wait unconditionally until a task completes. The task simulates work by calling the Thread.
The proper way of stooping tasks is using cancellation tokens.
