GetAsync in WP7 why not working?

Question

Hi,

What is wrong my code? This is a Windows Phone 7.1 project (vb language):

client = New LiveConnectClient(e.Session)

Dim operationResult As LiveOperationResult = Await client.GetAsync("me")

I get an error (GetAsync("me")): Expression does not produce a value

In Windows Phone 8 project this working, but in 7.1 not.

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

The async/await syntax is only supported in Live SDK for WP8.

For WP7, you need to use the event pattern. e.g.

LiveConnectClient connect = new LiveConnectClient(e.Session);
        connect.GetCompleted +=
            new EventHandler<LiveOperationCompletedEventArgs>(greetUser_GetCompleted);
        connect.GetAsync("me");

Thanks,

Lin
