    Please help me, i follo the tutorial to make a Rss reader, but when i deploy, i have an error:

    'System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyObservableCollection<App2.FeedData>' does not contain a definition for 'Add' and no extension method 'Add' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyObservableCollection<App2.FeedData>' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

    this is my source code:

    ...........

            

    //feeddatasource

    public class FeedDataSource
    {
        private ObservableCollection<FeedData> _Feeds = new ObservableCollection<FeedData>();
        public ReadOnlyObservableCollection<FeedData> Feeds
        {
            get
            {
                return this._Feeds;
            }
        }


        public async Task GetFeedAsync()
        {
            Task<FeedData> feed1 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://feeds.feedburner.com/SeputarInfoZakat");

            this.Feeds.Add(await feed1);
        }

    .....................

    Hi Sanichi,

    Simply understand from your code, your error should be on this line:

    this.Feeds.Add(await feed1);

    The error message told clearly you there is no Add() function in ReadOnlyObservableCollection<T>, Why you use "ReadOnly"? As I can see from the tutorial code: Part 5: Create a blog reader

    A correct code should be something like:

            private ObservableCollection<FeedData> _Feeds = new ObservableCollection<FeedData>();
        public ObservableCollection<FeedData> Feeds
        {
            get
            {
                return this._Feeds;
            }
        }

        public async Task GetFeedsAsync()
        {
            Task<FeedData> feed1 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/developers/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed2 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/windowsexperience/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed3 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/extremewindows/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed4 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/business/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed5 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed6 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/windowssecurity/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed7 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/springboard/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed8 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/windowshomeserver/atom.aspx");
            // There is no Atom feed for this blog, so use the RSS feed.
            Task<FeedData> feed9 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_live/b/windowslive/rss.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed10 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_live/b/developer/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed11 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/ie/b/ie/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed12 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_phone/b/wpdev/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed13 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_phone/b/wmdev/atom.aspx");
            Task<FeedData> feed14 =
                GetFeedAsync("http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_phone/b/windowsphone/atom.aspx");

            this.Feeds.Add(await feed1);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed2);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed3);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed4);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed5);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed6);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed7);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed8);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed9);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed10);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed11);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed12);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed13);
            this.Feeds.Add(await feed14);
        }
