I've tried to do the same in C#
var wc = new WebClient();
wc.DownloadStringCompleted += (s, e) => Message.Text = e.Result;
wc.DownloadStringAsync(new Uri("http://google.com";));
Which actually gives me the same result but I do get to see the error once
in a while. It's saying something about SecurityException.
So I went on and tried fetching the page it with a webrequest
var wr = WebRequest.Create("http://google.com";);
wr.BeginGetResponse(ar =>
{
var req = (WebRequest)ar.AsyncState;
var resp = req.EndGetResponse(ar);
using(var sr = new
StreamReader(resp.GetResponseStream()))
{
var result = sr.ReadToEnd();
Message.Text = result;
}
}, null);
This last approach also fails because AsyncState is null.
Have I lost my mind? Am I doing something wrong or is it Silverlight?
