Re: [MonoTouch] Await / Async / Task
Hi Jeff Is anyone on that team able to confirm? I've been using the Async CTP in my windows projects for some time now and its great. Unfortunately now I have a fairly large set of business classes that I need to use in an iPad app. The async support is what is holding me up and it seems to have been coming forever ( I asked about it last December and Miguel had said 2.12 would be released in Jan/Feb this year and to my knowledge its still not.) Now that MS have said that VS2012 will RTM in early August, I'm really hoping to see async support in MonoTouch released very VERY soon.

Re: [MonoTouch] Await / Async / Task
The core runtime team will need to stabilize release Mono 2.12 before the MonoTouch team will begin updating their runtime (which probably won't happen until after MonoTouch 6.0). Late fall or winter is when I might expect MonoTouch to have async/wait, but probably not much sooner.

Re: [MonoTouch] Await / Async / Task
Gulp. Am just thinking of the code I'm going to have to rewrite for the async/await i've used :-( -- View this message in context: http://monotouch.2284126.n4.nabble.com/Await-Async-Task-tp4656049p4656072.html Sent from the MonoTouch mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ MonoTouch mailing list MonoTouch@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monotouch
Re: [MonoTouch] Await / Async / Task
I wish we could have it sooner, but it's probably too risky to get it in for MonoTouch 6.0 (for iOS 6) Jeff On Thu, Jul 19, 2012 at 5:43 PM, JB jeff.butterwo...@softwareresults.com.au wrote: Gulp.

[MonoTouch] Await / Async / Task
Hello, I'm trying to get to use the async framework features to perform a web service call. I found from other posts, this is now supported in the Alpha release, so I downloaded it - and believe I have the correct updates, however it's giving me errors like: Type Parameter Declaration Must Be An Identifier Not A Type. Unexpected Symbol 'TestAsync' In Class, Struct, Or Interface Member Declaration, Class, Struct, Interface. Method must have a return type. My method is: public async Taskbool TestAsync{ //Some Stuff } Here is what versions I'm running: MonoDevelop 3.0.3.4 Runtime: Mono 2.10.9 (tarball) GTK 2.24.10 GTK# (2.12.0.0) Package version: 210090011 Apple Developer Tools: Xcode 4.3.2 (1177) Build 4E2002 Monotouch: 5.3.4 Anyone know how to make this work? Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://monotouch.2284126.n4.nabble.com/Await-Async-Task-tp4656049.html Sent from the MonoTouch mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ MonoTouch mailing list MonoTouch@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monotouch
Re: [MonoTouch] Await / Async / Task
Hi, Async/Await features are available in the alpha releases of Mono (ie. 2.11) but not MonoTouch (yet). I think the plan for these features being included in MonoTouch Mono 4 Android is this fall (although I'm not on that team, so I could be wrong). Hope that helps, Jeff On Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 2:45 PM, rhavlick rhavl...@rehabsoftware.comwrote: Hello, I'm trying to get to use the async framework features to perform a web service call.
