I have the following c# / WinRT code to receive a response from an IMAP command DataReader reader = new DataReader(sock.InputStream); reader.InputStreamOptions = InputStreamOptions.Partial; await reader.LoadAsync(1000000); string data = string.Empty; while(reader.UnconsumedBufferLength > 0){ data += reader.ReadString(reader.UnconsumedBufferLength); } The results are truncated after 8192 bytes. 8192 looks suspiciously like a limit of some kind. How do I get around this? The abstraction of TCP/IP sockets is a stream of bytes, not a stream of messages , as I explain on my blog. So it's perfectly

In windows desktop development (WinForms, WPF), the app.config is a potential place to put things like connection strings or uri's used within the app. This allows the end user to change these settings, application wide, without having to have a developer rebuild and redeploy. Is there a similar concept in WinRT apps? The closest thing I see is there is the local application data: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh700361.aspx The trouble I am having is that it seems like creating values and setting values in local application data are all done within code. Is there a way

I developed a Windows 8 C# application using Visual Studio Express 2012 RC. I can run it on my pc. However, I want to create an executable so that my friends can also try the application. When I click the .exe file under bin/Release folder it says: This application can only run in the context of an app container. How can i create an app container manually or using Visual Studio 2012? See here . You need a developer license to develop and test Metro style apps prior to certifying and deploying through the store. Visual Studio 2012 will automatically request a developer license when it is run

I am trying to build an application using the unofficial Google music api for .net in Windows 8 metro interface. I am loading the whole playlist foreach (GoogleMusicPlaylist p in pls.UserPlaylists) lbPlaylists.Items.Add(p.Title); and it comes up with this error HRESULT: 0x8001010E (RPC_E_WRONG_THREAD)) And I read around the internet and maybe I have to use dispatcher or something I am just generally confused. Use this Dispatcher.RunAsync(CoreDispatcherPriority.Normal, () => { foreach (GoogleMusicPlaylist p in pls.UserPlaylists) { lbPlaylists.Items.Add(p.Title); } }); 来源： https://stackoverflow

I am attempting to use the MediaCapture API within a Windows 8 Desktop Application (WinForms .NET 4.5). I am able to take the photo using the API, but the photo comes out very dark. Also, it does not appear that the MediaCapture API is triggering the camera flash automatically as it should. I have tried to set the Brightness, Contracts, WhiteBalance and exposure to automatic per MSDN documentation. Here is the relevant code. _mediaCapture = new MediaCapture(); // init the settings of the capture var settings = new MediaCaptureInitializationSettings(); settings.AudioDeviceId = ""; settings
