I am trying to use the concept of async and await in my program. The program abruptly exits. I am trying to get the content length from few random urls and process it and display the size in bytes of each url.
Code:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Net;
namespace TestProgram
{
public class asyncclass
{
public async void MainCall() {
await SumPageSizes();
}
public async Task SumPageSizes(){
List<string> urllist = GetUrlList();
foreach (var url in urllist)
{
byte[] content = await GetContent(url);
Displayurl(content, url);
}
}
private void Displayurl(byte[] content, string url)
{
var length = content.Length;
Console.WriteLine("The bytes length for the url response " + url + " is of :" +length );
}
private async Task<byte[]> GetContent(string url)
{
var content = new MemoryStream();
try
{
var obj = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
WebResponse response = obj.GetResponse();
using (Stream stream = response.GetResponseStream())
{
await stream.CopyToAsync(content);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.StackTrace);
}
return content.ToArray();
}
private List<string> GetUrlList()
{
var urllist = new List<string>(){

};
return urllist;
}
}
}
Main
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
asyncclass asyncdemo = new asyncclass();
asyncdemo.MainCall();
}
