LocalMessageSender.SendAsync Method (String, Object)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Sends the specified messages to the configured receiver asynchronously.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Messaging
Assembly:  System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute> _
Public Sub SendAsync ( _
    message As String, _
    userState As Object _
)

[SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute]
public void SendAsync(
    string message,
    Object userState
)

Parameters

  • userState
    Type: System.Object
    A unique user-state object that functions as a task ID for the message transfer.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException

message is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
ArgumentException

message is longer than 40,960 characters.

Remarks

You can send messages up to 40 kilobytes long.

When you call this method, the MessageReceived event occurs for the LocalMessageReceiver that corresponds to the ReceiverName and ReceiverDomain settings. Then, the SendCompleted event occurs, regardless of whether the message was successfully sent. You can retrieve the userState object in the SendCompleted event handler in order to identify the message.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use this method. This example is part of a larger example available in How to: Implement Communication Between Local Silverlight-Based Applications.
