HI, I'm learning about WCF.
I've written a simple service and I'm trying to write a web-form
client.
On a simple console client that's all right. I've got the problem with
the asynchronous callback in the client.
When I click Button1 the client send request to the service and I
return the callback correctly:
variable 'res' contains the correct return value but not 'Label2'
I'm sure I forgot something, can anybody help me?
PS: sorry for my english

Here's the code for defult.aspx.vb
Imports System.ServiceModel

Partial Class _Default
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

Private Sub Add_Callback(ByVal ar As IAsyncResult)
Dim Client As CalculatorClient = DirectCast(ar.AsyncState,
CalculatorClient)
Dim res As String = Client.EndAdd(ar)
Label2.text = res '<---Label2.text could non be
refresh!!!!!!!!!!!
End Sub

Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs)
Dim Client As New CalculatorClient
Label1.Text = Client.Add(CDbl(Text1.Text))
Client.Close()
End Sub

Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs)
Dim Client As New CalculatorClient
Dim ar As IAsyncResult = Client.BeginAdd(CDbl(Text2.Text), New
AsyncCallback(AddressOf Add_Callback), Client)
End Sub

End Class

Thank you
 
in prerender you need to add a wait for the async routine to complete,
so that its effects can be seen in the returned html. as you have it
now, the html is returned and the browser has rendered the page before
the async has completed. updating the servers version of the lbel is
meanless. remember each request (button click) creates a new class
instance to process the request.
