I'm relatively new to Xamarin and have gotten to a point in my application where I want to have notifications, I'm using local notifications to show the user that they have received a message from someone in my application. While I can get the notification to show, when it clicks it either shows nothing or it "restarts" the application (takes the user back to the login page). How do I get the notification to show a set page, such as my contacts page when the notification is clicked on? How do I get the notification to show a set page, such as my contacts page when the notification is clicked

I am trying to call method created correctly using WCF, I start debugging the project for WCF and the result as the following: on my xamarin.forms code i used HttpClient Library as the following: private async Task DownloadInfo() { var Uri = "http://localhost:10300/RestServiceImpl.svc/json"; var httpClient = new HttpClient(); var json= await httpClient.GetStringAsync(Uri); } when I am trying to get json result from Xamarin.Forms I get the following: what I should do? It seems like you are inspecting the task there, this doesnt give that much information. You can try this little more structured

I have built a NuGet package for my Simple.OData.Client with support for Xamarin Android and iOS. This library uses Microsoft.Bcl.Async. Tests using Android and iOS simulator went OK, but when I install this new NuGet package into another project, it fails to compile Droid/Touch projects with the following message: C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Xamarin\Android\Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(720,2): error : Exception while loading assemblies: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load assembly 'Microsoft.Threading.Tasks.Extensions, Version=1.0.12.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken

I want to use a simple (POCO only without other dependencies) PCL with targets Xamarin.Android Universal Windows 10 ASP.NET Core 1.0 in an ASP.NET Core 1.0 RC2 project (all in the same solution). I have added this import to my project.json: "frameworks": { "netcoreapp1.0": { "imports": [ "dotnet5.6", "dnxcore50", "portable-net451+win8" ], "dependencies": { "PCL.Library": { "target": "project" } } } } I don’t get any errors (compilation or otherwise) and the PCL.Library project shows up in the references (without warning signs or anything). But I can’t use it in my ASP.NET Core 1.0 RC2 project

This is my first time trying anything that targets more than just a .NET Framework. I can't seem to do it from the GUI. I've tried project type 'Class Library (Portable)' and project type 'Class Library (.NET Standard)'. I can change a 'Class Library (Portable)' to target .NET Standard but then I can't select anything else. I'm not sure if I should try to change the .csproj of 'Class Library (.NET Standard)' or the project.json of 'Class Library (Portable)', I just want whatever is most future-proof. As of a few days ago the .csproj has been simplified and ease of use has improved. With the

I'm needing to parse a path into parts from within a portable class library and get things like the filename, extension, just directory name, etc. All of these methods are fairly easy to access from within System.IO.Path, however, this doesn't seem to exist within portable class libraries. Is there an open source replacement for this or some other API that would give me the same functionality? You may be able to use or adapt the code for System.IO.Path from Mono: https://github.com/mono/mono/blob/master/mcs/class/corlib/System.IO/Path.cs EDIT: Also, my PCL Storage library provides some file IO
