Before I go and download OSX equivalents and step back in to the world of .NET, does mono support any of the new fancy stuff you're using?

I've rewritten the AuthClient class to work with .net core but run into an issue with the cert, the problem I have is I'm seeing a betfair response of CERT_AUTH_REQUIRED

I'm newish to c#/ .net core so any help would be appreciated, and once working i'll post the code here

thanks

I was using the BetTargetType/BetTargetSize way of using placeOrders and it was throwing an exception everytime I made the call. Turns out it's because Size shouldn't be featured in the JSON. So I made Size nullable and the problem went away. This isn't an issue when using placeOrders in the regular way becasue Size is obviously needed - but with BetTargetType/Size it isn't.
Hope this helps and thanks for all the work you've put into this.

Great work on the Library!

When I try do a non-interactive Login with BetfairClient.Login if fails with INVALID_USERNAME_OR_PASSWORD even though they are correct. Looking into this it seems the code for generating the post data does not correctly format the details as a URL formatted string. My password has several nonstandard characters in it which seem to be misinterpreted during login.

I replaced the following code:
string postData = string.Format("username={0}&password={1}", username, password);

with:

NameValueCollection outgoingQueryString = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(String.Empty);
outgoingQueryString.Add("username", username);
outgoingQueryString.Add("password", password);
string postData = outgoingQueryString.ToString();

Which rectifies the problem and logs in successfully. There may be more succinct ways of achieving this but this worked for me.

Cheers.

Hi. Just downloaded the zip and extracted. Getting a ton of messages like:
Error CS2001 Source file 'C:\Repeat\betfairng-master\stream-api-sample-code\csharp\Betfair.ESAClient\Betfair.ESASwagger\Betfair\ESASwagger\Model\AllRequestTypesExample.cs' could not be found. Betfair.ESASwagger C:\Repeat\betfairng-master\CSC 1 Active

Have searched for AllRequestTypesExample.cs but cannot find the file.

Thanks

Hi,

I just made a stack overflow post about this... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25341330/concurrent-web-request-working-in-unit-test-but-timing-out-when-run-from-a-form

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi, I am trying to place bets using my live key and using PlaceOrders function of NG-API library which always returns null. And if I check account, the orders are not even placed.

I need help to make this working.

var res = BetfairClient.PlaceOrders(marketBook.MarketId, instructions).Result.Response;
Where "res" is always null.

Here is a screenshot of the errors:

Here is my app keys status:

This is how I build my PlaceInstructions:

Would you please guide me what is require to place bets successfully using PlaceOrders function/api?

I don't understand how i can achieve the ListEvents like in the demo in https://developer.betfair.com/exchange-api/betting-api-demo/.

ListEvents and ListEventTypes return the same thing but in a different form. And they are a list of EventResult and respectively EventTypeResult. I don't really understand how to modify/make an existing method to return a list of Event type.

Hi.
ListEvents method in BetfairClient.cs wrongly refers to LIST_EVENT_TYPES_METHOD.

Thanks for your great work!

I'm sure I am doing something wrong here.

I've built the library and created a small program that logs on using the interactive route (as opposed to using the certificate). The login works fine and I get the necessary session id.

I then call TestAPI.Test() but the program then just sits there doing nothing.

I can trace the code going in to ListCurrencyRates and back out again, but then it just sits there waiting for a return in the main Test routine. Specifically it just sits at the line:

var currencyRates = client.ListCurrencyRates("GBP").Result;

I have checked that the request is actually being sent to the API and that a response is being sent back, but the response never seems to make it back to the main program.

What am I doing wrong?

I occasionally get an exception on

var book = client.ListMarketBook(markets.Keys.ToList(), this.priceProjection).Result;

in MarketListener.cs

What would be the best way to handle this exception as it currently crashes the program

Hi, the change of URL in the commit above does the opposite for me, it breaks login but changing it back works fine.

Hello,
first at all i want to thank you for nice Betfair library.

I started trying your code in C# in MS Visual Studio 2013. When i try to build solution i get upcoming errors. I do not know (because i am newbie in C#] if these errors are by some wrong setting in Visual studio or it's misspellings or something else. Thank you for advice.

1. MarketListenerPeriodic.cs
   line 134 "_polling?.Dispose();"
2. MarketListenerMultiPeriod.cs
   line 223 "poll.Value?.Dispose();"

In case 1) and 2) i removed char ? and syntax is fine

3. "ConsoleExample\OriginalExample.cs"
   line 14 "public bool IsBlocking => false;"
   line 21 "public bool IsBlocking => true;"
   line 23 "public bool IsBlocking => true;"
   line 29 "public bool IsBlocking => false;"

In case 3) i removed char > and syntax is fine

Is my corrections right, or i do some other mistake, which causes these errors?
Thanks in advance
