BackgroundWorker on boolean functions c#

Question

I have a boolean function. I have a bw which I wish to use to run this function. I want to get the return value from the function, is it possible?

Here is a sample code:

void Main ()
{
     BackgroundWorker backgroundWorker = new BackgroundWorker();
     backgroundWorker.DoWork += (sender1, e1) => testBool();
     bool result = backgroundWorker.RunWorkerAsync;
}

bool testBool()
{
     return true;
}

Is it possible?

Thanks.

You can subscribe to BackgroundWorker.RunWorkerCompleted event to recieve a notification about a fact that the computaion terminated.

Inside that testBool(..) you can set global variable, and after inside the event handler of RunWorkerCompleted read that value.
