Xamarin Login issues
Hi guys,
im pretty new to xamarin and api's.
was working with the example seen here https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/dotnet#tutorial
so i have managed to get the UWP working.
on my Android project the app just hangs and crashes
try
{
DropboxClient dbx = new DropboxClient("TOKEN HERE");
using (dbx)
{
var list = await dbx.Files.ListFolderAsync(string.Empty); // crashes here
// show folders then files
foreach (var item in list.Entries.Where(i => i.IsFolder))
{
Console.WriteLine("D {0}/", item.Name);
}
foreach (var item in list.Entries.Where(i => i.IsFile))
{
Console.WriteLine("F{0,8} {1}", item.AsFile.Size, item.Name);
}
}
anyone have a simple working example or can assist with the above

What error message and stack trace are you getting when it crashes on ListFolderAsync?
Hi, no stacktrace or anthing. just returns null and exits method.

I'm not sure I follow. You originally said it crashes on that method, but now you've said it actually returns null. Neither is supposed to happen, but please elaborate on exactly what you are seeing. You may want to add some extra logging, or step through with a debugger. (Is list actually null, or is list.Entries empty perhaps?)
We don't officially support Xamarin, but we'll be happy to take a look to see if there's an API-level issue.
Hi
sorry about that, the problem ended up being the actual project.
had to clean project and restart VS.
thanks for your help
