How to download string from HTTPS website in windows phone 8

Question

I am windows phone developer, I want to download string from HTTPS web site and I use

WebClient most_down_download = new WebClient();
most_down_download.DownloadStringCompleted += Most_down_download_DownloadStringCompleted;
most_down_download.DownloadStringAsync(new Uri(https_url));

but it is not working. Can you help me?

Answer 1

You need generate Most_down_download_DownloadStringCompleted event handler as below

void Most_down_download_DownloadStringCompleted(object sender, 
                              System.Net.DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    try
    {
        if (e.Error == null)
        {
            string response = e.Result.ToString();
        }
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    { }
}

And in e.Result.ToString() you are getting string from Web site
