为基于休息的服务创建ac＃包装器

Question

How does one go about creating ac# wrapper for rest based service.

I want to access the rest based API at Www.zomato.com inside my Silverlight app.

Any guidance is appreciated.

Answer 1

I would take a look at some examples, there are numerous ones out in the wild. The following is a great example for twilio's rest api; it leverages RestSharp under the covers. RestSharp is a great libary (available via nuget) to help out with the heavy lifting of interacting with a web api.

Note: Microsoft is coming out with a richer HttpClient option in .net 4.5; in fact, you can get it now via nuget.
