[SOLVED] WebClient exception | Windows 10 spring 2018 update

Postby TobiasDonaubauer » Wed May 02, 2018 5:30 am

Since the current Windows 10 spring 2018 update, this code:

Code: Select all

  var webClient = new WebClient();
  webClient.Encoding = Encoding.UTF8;
  webClient.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.Accept] = "application/json";


throws an exception when running in the browser:

Uncaught Error: Type 'System.Text.UTF8Encoding+UTF8EncodingSealed' has not been defined.
at Object.JSIL.RuntimeError (JSIL.Core.js:10531)
at Object.JSIL.GetTypeByName (JSIL.Core.js:1100)

at Object.JSIL.InitializeType (JSIL.Core.js:4528)


I am currently using Visual Studio 2017. Before the update everything worked fine!

I tried it in Chrome and Edge. Both run into the same exception.

Same here. Any known workaround? We are using the WebClient class to access our REST APIs.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this issue.

Can you please try the REST demo in the sample showcase app?

To do so, in VS, click "File -> New Project -> CS/XAML for HTML5 -> Sample Showcase", then run it, click "WCF", and try out the REST demo.

Thanks,
Regards,
JS-Support

Hi,

We haven't had the chance to try out the Spring update yet, but we may have found a solution.

Can you please try to apply the following hotfix and let me know if it fixes the issue?

Here is the hotfix:

1. Download the following ZIP file:
CSHTML5 v1.1.2 hotfix1.zip
(77.15 KiB) Downloaded 612 times


2. Extract it on your disk

3. Copy the file "CSharpXamlForHtml5.Compiler.dll" from the extracted file into the following folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\CSharpXamlForHtml5\InternalStuff\Compiler

Make sure to replace the existing file. If there is no file to replace, you are probably copying it to the wrong location.

4. Rebuild your project.


Thank you.
Regards,
JS-Support
