The following example shows a basic asynchronous background download:
C# Example
var config = NSUrlSessionConfiguration.BackgroundSessionConfiguration(Guid.NewGuid().ToString());
var session = NSUrlSession.FromConfiguration(config, new SimpleSessionDelegate(), new NSOperationQueue());
var downloadTask = session.CreateDownloadTask(NSUrlRequest.FromUrl(url));
//Begin download, asynchronously
downloadTask.Resume();
...
class SimpleSessionDelegate : NSUrlSessionDownloadDelegate
{
public override void DidFinishDownloading(NSUrlSession session, NSUrlSessionDownloadTask downloadTask, NSUrl location)
{
var file = File.OpenRead(location.Path);
...
}
}
