So, first I have read a ton of threads on this particular problem and I still do not understand how to fix it. Basically, I am trying to communicate with a websocket and store the message received in an observable collection that is bound to a listview. I know that I am getting a response back properly from the socket, but when it tries to add it to the observable collection it gives me the following error:
The application called an interface that was marshalled for a different thread. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8001010E (RPC_E_WRONG_THREAD))
I've read some information on "dispatch" as well as some other things, but I am just massively confused! Here is my code:
public ObservableCollection<string> messageList { get; set; }
private void MessageReceived(MessageWebSocket sender, MessageWebSocketMessageReceivedEventArgs args)
{
string read = "";
try
{
using (DataReader reader = args.GetDataReader())
{
reader.UnicodeEncoding = Windows.Storage.Streams.UnicodeEncoding.Utf8;
read = reader.ReadString(reader.UnconsumedBufferLength);
}
}
catch (Exception ex) // For debugging
{
WebErrorStatus status = WebSocketError.GetStatus(ex.GetBaseException().HResult);
// Add your specific error-handling code here.
}
if (read != "")
messageList.Add(read); // this is where I get the error
}
And this is the binding:
protected override async void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
{
//await Authenticate();
Gameboard.DataContext = Game.GameDetails.Singleton;
lstHighScores.ItemsSource = sendInfo.messageList;
}
How do I make the error go away while still binding to the observable collection for my listview?
