Issue with docs/handbook/commands/canceling.md

Open SuperJMN opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

In the last part, where does the CancellationToken come from? where is it created?

EDIT: I successfully created a Cancel command with the docs :) Sorry, I didn't see that the CancellationToken was implicit in the StartAsync call.

BTW, there's a typo: sometimes the code says "cancelable" and sometimes it is "cancellable". Please, fix it.

@SuperJMN The various forms of the word cancel have bothered me for years. Technically Cancelled and Canceled are both correct. This is a divergence in the English language. Because it is a CancellationToken I tend to agree that it should be cancelled in these instances.
