Async operation completes, but result is not send to browser
I want to implement a webchat.
The backend is a dual WCF channel. Dual channel works in the console or winforms, and it actuall开发者_Python百科y works on the web. I can at least send and receive messages.
As a base I used this blog post so, the async operation completes.
When i debug the result, I see that the messages are all ready to send to the browser.
[AsyncTimeout(ChatServer.MaxWaitSeconds * 1020)] // timeout is a bit longer than the internal wait
public void IndexAsync()
{
ChatSession chatSession = this.GetChatSession();
if (chatSession != null)
{
this.AsyncManager.OutstandingOperations.Increment();
try
{
chatSession.CheckForMessagesAsync(msgs =>
{
this.AsyncManager.Parameters["response"] = new ChatResponse { Messages = msgs };
this.AsyncManager.OutstandingOperations.Decrement();
});
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.ErrorException("Failed to check for messages.", ex);
}
}
}
public ActionResult IndexCompleted(ChatResponse response)
{
try
{
if (response != null)
{
Logger.Debug("Async request completed. Number of messages: {0}", response.Messages.Count);
}
JsonResult retval = this.Json(response);
Logger.Debug("Rendered response: {0}", retval.);
return retval;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Logger.ErrorException("Failed rendering the response.", ex);
return this.Json(null);
}
}
But nothing is actually sent.
Checking Fiddler, I see the request but I never get a response.
[SessionState(SessionStateBehavior.ReadOnly)]
public class ChatController : AsyncController
I also had to set the SessionStateBehaviour to Readonly, otherwise the async operation would block the whole page.
EDIT: Here is the CheckForMessagesAsync:
public void CheckForMessagesAsync(Action<List<ChatMessage>> onMessages)
{
if (onMessages == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException("onMessages");
Task task = Task.Factory.StartNew(state =>
{
List<ChatMessage> msgs = new List<ChatMessage>();
ManualResetEventSlim wait = new ManualResetEventSlim(false);
Action<List<ChatMessage>> callback = state as Action<List<ChatMessage>>;
if (callback != null)
{
IDisposable subscriber = m_messages.Subscribe(chatMessage =>
{
msgs.Add(chatMessage);
wait.Set();
});
bool success;
using (subscriber)
{
// Wait for the max seconds for a new msg
success = wait.Wait(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(ChatServer.MaxWaitSeconds));
}
if (success) this.SafeCallOnMessages(callback, msgs);
else this.SafeCallOnMessages(callback, null);
}
}, onMessages);
}
private void SafeCallOnMessages(Action<List<ChatMessage>> onMessages, List<ChatMessage> messages)
{
if (onMessages != null)
{
if (messages == null)
messages = new List<ChatMessage>();
try
{
onMessages(messages);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
this.Logger.ErrorException("Failed to call OnMessages callback.", ex);
}
}
}
it`s the same idea as the in the refered blog post
EDIT2: Btw, when nothing is received, so the wait timeout comes into play, the reponse returns. so it seems to crash somewhere. any idea how to log this?
I changed the jQUERY request (see original blog post) from POST to GET. That fixes it.
