Closed Issue: How to get description when accessing private set [33762]

samjudson — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 10:56:43 GMT

Hi,

How do you get the photo description when accessing a private set?

To get the photos, I'm currently using the PhotoSetCollection (after authenticating using oAuth):

PhotosetPhotoCollection photos = f.PhotosetsGetPhotos("");

The description for each image is always empty though. I saw in the examples you can use the options.Extras = PhotoSearchExtras.Description when doing a search but I can't find any information on how to use the options when getting the specific set.

Thanks in advance!

Best,
Greg

PhotosetsGetPhotos takes multiple parameters, one of which is a PhotoSearchExtras parameter. Pass the PhotoSearchExtras.Description value in to that.

Closed Issue: InstanceCacheDisabled can not be initialized when the FlickrConfigurationManager.Settings was null [33621]

samjudson — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 11:40:06 GMT

1. I wrote Flickr.CacheDisabled = true; in the Application_Start and I didn't config the flickr settings in the web.config.
2. Case new an Flickr instance, the InstanceCacheDisabled of the new instance is always 'false'
3. I think it should be possible.
Comments:

Not a bug.

This is not a bug - you cannot create instances and set state in the Application_Start event and expect it to still be around when you run your page - that's no how ASP.Net works.

I suggest you create a helper class that can create you a new instance of the Flickr class with all the settings you want to use each time, and then call that wherever you need an instance of the Flickr class.

Commented Issue: XmlException: DTD is prohibited [33616]

samjudson — Thu, 27 Dec 2012 12:02:54 GMT

I just received this Exception via BugSense:

XmlException: For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the DtdProcessing property on XmlReaderSettings to Parse and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method.

at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e)
at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseDoctypeDecl()
at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseDocumentContent()
at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Read()
at System.Xml.XmlReader.ReadToDescendant(String name)
at FlickrNet.Flickr.<>c__DisplayClass16`1.b__14(FlickrResult`1 r)

- The app is compiled for Windows Phone 7.1
- The exception was thrown on a Windows Phone 8 device in Russia
- The FlickrNet version in use is 3.4

Since the FlickrNet version in use isn't the current one, the issue might already be solved. However here's how to fix it:

When creating the XmlReader, provide XmlReaderSettings with DtdProcessing set to DtdProcessing.Ignore.
Comments: ** Comment from web user: samjudson **

Interesting. I've never seen a response from Flickr which includes a DTD, so I'm not sure why this would be occurring.

Created Issue: Unabled to use Proxy with Flickr [33216]

fewle — Thu, 11 Oct 2012 13:38:17 GMT

We are using FlickrNet in a web project. And the customers server requires proxy server to get request from internet.

After much debuging etc i found that the.
private static string DownloadData(string method, string baseUrl, string data, string contentType, string authHeader)

method don't add proxy before the request.

i added following:

if (FlickrConfigurationManager.Settings.IsProxyDefined)
{
var proxy = new WebProxy();
proxy.Address = new Uri("http://" + FlickrConfigurationManager.Settings.ProxyIPAddress + ":" + FlickrConfigurationManager.Settings.ProxyPort);
proxy.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(FlickrConfigurationManager.Settings.ProxyUsername, FlickrConfigurationManager.Settings.ProxyPassword);
client.Proxy = proxy;
}
in FlickResponderSync.cs method DownloadData

and after that you can have proxy server defined :)

Closed Task: uploadProgress not doing its job [6542]

samjudson — Sat, 30 Jun 2012 21:01:43 GMT

Investigate the following issue:

"When it goes into uploading mode it can take a while to complet each picture, so I was hoping that assigning a function to OnUploadProgress would mean I get regular reports on how many bytes have been uploaded so far and thus I could update a progress bar and show the user that something is happening. But I get all the progress messages straight away. They count up through the bytes until on the last one it reports the file is complete. Then it sits there waiting for UploadPicture to finish actually doing the upload."
Comments:

UploadProgress event is raised while the file is being uploaded. Once the file has been uploaded Flickr will process the file at their end (creating thumbnails etc). We have no way of knowing if this second part of the process has completed or how far through it is I'm afraid.

Closed Issue: GetResponseAsync throws exception [32696]

samjudson — Sat, 30 Jun 2012 20:48:44 GMT

The GetResponseAsync method in Flickr_GetResponseAsync.cs will throw an exception instead of returning an error code because the try catch code is not positioned correctly.

See attached patch for solution suggestion.
Comments:

Thanks. This has been now included in the latest source.

Thanks for reporting this issue. I am working on implementing the fix you provided and ensuring that there are some unit tests to check this behaviour is working correctly.

Closed Issue: WP7 javascript error when using url obtained by OAuthCalculateAuthorizationUrl [32606]

samjudson — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 13:24:38 GMT

Hi,
I am seeing javascript error when I try to login in the browser. The Authorization Url was obtained by calling OAuthCalculateAuthorizationUrl. Same thing is happening on emulator as well as on the real phone.

I suspect that the url might be be for desktop. Any ideas anybody?

Thanks
Comments:

Added an optional parameter mobile = true/false to the method to return the mobile version.

m.flickr.com makes it to work on WP7. Can you add this to library?

Just tried it actually and just doing a Replace("www.flickr.com", "m.flickr.com") actually produced a decent result. I was sure this didn't work last time I checked.

As far as I'm aware there isn't a separate authorization url for mobile vs desktop for OAuth. I might be wrong. If there is then please let me know and I will modify the library to produce it.
