PeerNameResolver::ResolveAsync Method (PeerName^, Cloud^, Object^)

 

Begins an asynchronous peer name resolution operation for the specified PeerName in the specified Cloud.

Namespace:   System.Net.PeerToPeer
Assembly:  System.Net (in System.Net.dll)

public:
[HostProtectionAttribute(SecurityAction::LinkDemand, ExternalThreading = true)]
void ResolveAsync(
	PeerName^ peerName,
	Cloud^ cloud,
	Object^ userState
)

Parameters

peerName
Type: System.Net.PeerToPeer::PeerName^

The PeerName to resolve.

cloud
Type: System.Net.PeerToPeer::Cloud^

The Cloud in which to resolve the peerName.

userState
Type: System::Object^

A user-defined Object that contains information about the peer name resolution operation.

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

One or both of the peerName and userState parameters are set to null.

This method raises the ResolveCompleted event, which calls back to the OnResolveCompleted method. Or, it raises the ResolveProgressChanged event, which calls back to the OnResolveProgressChanged method.

For unsecured peer names, the same name can be registered (and associated with different endpoints) by different peers within the same cloud.

If the Cloud parameter is null, the name is resolved using the Available shortcut, which initializes default values for the Name, Scope, and ScopeId properties.

For every ResolveAsync method, there is an equivalent Resolve method. Their parameter lists are identical, except that the ResolveAsync method includes a system token for asynchronous event handling, and the Resolve method is intended for synchronous processing.

All asynchronous references to the resolver object are coordinated with a unique identifier token. This userState token or message identifier allows an operating system to deliver a message to a single receiving process after the message has been placed on the message queue.

The ResolveCompleted event will be raised if the resolve operation completes in error or is canceled.
