从Windows窗体应用程序调用Web API

Question

http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/web-api-clients/calling-a-web-api-from-a-net-client

I have been using this tutorial to learn how to send and retrieve data from a web API . However is there another way without using Tasks and await ? Sometimes my requests are taking a long time to return when others are relatively quick.

Are there any other tutorials that may help? What is the best way to call my web api client to login? I feel I shouldn't be using await and async for this sort of thing but could really use some help.

Answer 1

只需从nuget manager下载microsoft http api库到你的项目并使用httpClient

Answer 2

You could just use HttpClient if you like and it is supported even in older versions of .NET , and you would not need to worry about tasks or threading. HttpClient also allows you to get the result async but you would need to provide a callback to be called when the result is ready.

Have a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.http.httpclient(v=vs.110).aspx

Having said that, I agree with John comments above that you should use await and async
