Task Factory Method with Delay

Question

Hi,

 

am trying to call a particular Method with 5 mins Delay.below is my code.

 

try

{

HttpContext ctx = HttpContext.Current;

System.Threading.Tasks.Task.Factory.StartNew(() =>

{

HttpContext.Current = ctx;

System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5 * 60 * 1000);

Sendafter5mins(param1,params2);

});

}

catch (Exception EX){

//Log Exception if any  

}

 

This Method is failing silently sometimes without any exception in log.

 

Please Suggest me is this the right way to fire a method with 5 mins delay.
