Question

Here’s the code I’m running:

        var wc = new WebClient ();
        var test1 = wc.DownloadString("http://www.google.com");
        var test2 = wc.DownloadString("https://www.google.com");

test1 gives me some text.

test2 never gets initialised because of an exception with trace starting:

{System.Net.WebException: Error getting response stream (Write:
EndWrite failure): SendFailure —> System.IO.IOException: EndWrite
failure —> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: The socket has been

I’m running MonoDevelop.MonoDroid – 2.6.0.0 – with a download from MonoDroid a couple of days ago – “Mono for Android: 1.2.24817.105690530 (Evaluation)”

Is this just a bug – or is there some other step I need for MonoDroid?

Answer 1

It seems this has been confirmed as a bug in the 1.2 release – so I’m closing this question!
