The application called an interface that was marshalled for a different thread - Windows Store App
Solution 1:
This solved my issue:
Windows.ApplicationModel.Core.CoreApplication.MainView.CoreWindow.Dispatcher.RunAsync(CoreDispatcherPriority.Normal,
() =>
{
// Your UI update code goes here!
}
);
Correct way to get the CoreDispatcher in a Windows Store app
Solution 2:
Try replacing
messageList.Add(read);
with
Dispatcher.Invoke((Action)(() => messageList.Add(read)));
If you're calling from outside your Window class, try:
Application.Current.Dispatcher.Invoke((Action)(() => messageList.Add(read)));
Solution 3:
Slight modification for task based async methods but the code in here will not be awaited.
await Windows.ApplicationModel.Core.CoreApplication.MainView.CoreWindow.Dispatcher.RunAsync(CoreDispatcherPriority.Normal,
() =>
{
// Your UI update code goes here!
}
).AsTask();
This code WILL await, and will allow you to return a value:
private async static Task<string> GetPin()
{
var taskCompletionSource = new TaskCompletionSource<string>();
CoreApplication.MainView.CoreWindow.Dispatcher.RunAsync(CoreDispatcherPriority.Normal,
async () =>
{
var pin = await UI.GetPin();
taskCompletionSource.SetResult(pin);
}
);
return await taskCompletionSource.Task;
}
And on Android:
private async Task<string> GetPin()
{
var taskCompletionSource = new TaskCompletionSource<string>();
RunOnUiThread(async () =>
{
var pin = await UI.GetPin();
taskCompletionSource.SetResult(pin);
});
return await taskCompletionSource.Task;
}
