    text
    copied!<p>I'm trying to read the public twitter status of a user so I can display it in my Windows Phone application.</p> <p>I'm using Scott Gu's example: <a href="http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2010/03/18/building-a-windows-phone-7-twitter-application-using-silverlight.aspx" rel="noreferrer">http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2010/03/18/building-a-windows-phone-7-twitter-application-using-silverlight.aspx</a></p> <p>When my code comes back from the async call, I get a "System.Security.SecurityException" as soon as I try to use the e.Result.</p> <p>I know my uri is correct because I can plop it in the browser and get good results.</p> <p>Here is my relavent code: </p> <pre><code> public void LoadNewsLine() { WebClient twitter = new WebClient(); twitter.DownloadStringCompleted += new DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler(twitter_DownloadStringCompleted); twitter.DownloadStringAsync(new Uri("http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.xml?screen_name=krashlander")); } void twitter_DownloadStringCompleted(object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e) { XElement xmlTweets = XElement.Parse(e.Result); //exception thrown here! var message = from tweet in xmlTweets.Descendants("status") select tweet.Element("text").Value; //Set message and tell UI to update. //NewsLine = message.ToString(); //RaisePropertyChanged("NewsLine"); } </code></pre> <p>Any ideas anyone?</p> <p><em>SOLUTION: I finally figured this one out. I had simply forgotten to uncomment the: capability in the WMAppManifest.xml. Once I did that the security exception went away.</em></p>
