    I am getting "Unhandled exception at 0x5DCF4E4e (msvcr1103d.dll) in RakNet_WindowsStore8_VS20212.exe: An invalid parameter was passed to a function that considers invalid parameters fatal."

    What am I doing wrong?

    Code:

    DatagramSocket ^listener = ref new DatagramSocket();
    HostName ^hostName = ref new HostName(ref new Platform::String(L"microsoft.com"));
    task< Windows::Foundation::Collections::IVectorView<EndpointPair^>^ > op(listener->GetEndpointPairsAsync(hostName, L"0"));
    op.wait();
    Windows::Foundation::Collections::IVectorView<EndpointPair^>^view = op.get();
    if (view->Size>0)
    {
    Platform::String ^name = view->GetAt(0)->RemoteHostName->DisplayName;
    RakString rs2;
    rs2.FromWideChar(name->Data());
    strcpy(ip, rs2.C_String());
    }
    else
    {
    ip[0]=0;
    }

    Hi,

    We should not use wait function in Windows Store UI thread, the UI thread cannot be block. I change it with .then and it works fine on my side.

    	DatagramSocket ^listener = ref new DatagramSocket();
	HostName ^hostName = ref new HostName(ref new Platform::String(L"microsoft.com"));
	task< Windows::Foundation::Collections::IVectorView<EndpointPair^>^ >(listener->GetEndpointPairsAsync(hostName, L"0")).then(
		[this](task< Windows::Foundation::Collections::IVectorView<EndpointPair^>^> previousTask)
	{
		try
		{
			Windows::Foundation::Collections::IVectorView<EndpointPair^>^view=previousTask.get();
			if (view->Size>0)
			{
				Platform::String ^name = view->GetAt(0)->RemoteHostName->DisplayName;
	
			}
			else
			{
				
			} 

		}
		catch(Exception^ exception){
		}

	}
	);

    Best regards,
    Jesse
