I have already created WCF Services for Login and hosted on IIS.

Now i want use this wcf service in xamarin studio Native application with Portable Class Library (PCL) for login, change password and forget password.

I have created Android, ios and Window Phone 8.0 Project in visual studio solution.

I have make so much RND on this but I couldn't find any proper way.

Answer 1

HttpClient client = new HttpClient();

// A POST request needs HttpContent along with the webservice URI
string body = "YOUR REQUEST BODY HERE"; // username/password in JSON format
var content = new StringContent(body);

client.PostAsync("YOUR_SERVICE_URL", content);

If your webservice needs some headers, use:

client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("key","value");

You can also send the username/password as headers.

NOTE: You might need to add Microsoft.net.Http package from nuget
