Hi *,
I have discovered that the Mono implementation of WebClient doesn't
behave as described in this MSDN article:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/gg598924.aspx
Specifically all Async methods don't capure the current
SynchronizationContext to later run the event handlers on it.
I can probably provide some patches but I don't know if there are plans
to replace that code with the one MS open sourced.
As a side note, inspecting the code I found that in quite a lot of
places Mono doesn't implement the "event handler" pattern correctly doing:
if (Event != null)
Event(args);
instead of:
var e = Event;
if (e != null)
e(args);
Are patches about this welcome?
