    C#/ WPF App - System.Security.SecurityException was unhandled by user code

    I've created a WPF applicaiton in VS2008. (.NET 3.5) It's a simple application that has a button in the browser. Once the button is clicked, an sms text is supposed to be sent to a phone number via the skype API. However, I get the "System.Security.SecurityException was unhandled by user code" message. Any thoughts as to how to get around the error?

    Here's the code:

    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Windows;
    using System.Windows.Controls;
    using System.Windows.Data;
    using System.Windows.Documents;
    using System.Windows.Input;
    using System.Windows.Media;
    using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
    using System.Windows.Navigation;
    using System.Windows.Shapes;


    namespace GenevaText
    {
    /// <summary>
    /// Interaction logic for Page1.xaml
    /// </summary>
    public partial class Page1 : Page
    {

    public Page1()
    {
    InitializeComponent();
    }

    //User presses button to send a sms message to the appropriate phone number
    private void btnTestMsg_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
    SKYPE4COMLib.SkypeClass objSkype = new SKYPE4COMLib.SkypeClass();
    objSkype.SendSms("3125551212", "test message", "3125551111");
    }
    }
    }

    You have a permissions issue because the WPF app is operating within the security context of the browser. By default this prevents you from accessing COM objects.

    Post the whole exception, especialy the exception's message.
    • Make it run.
    • Make it right.
    • Make it fast.

    Don't hesitate to rate my post.

    Re: C#/ WPF App - System.Security.SecurityException was unhandled by user code

    Put a try/catch block around the COM call:
    Code:
    try
    {
      SKYPE4COMLib.SkypeClass objSkype = new SKYPE4COMLib.SkypeClass(); 
      
      objSkype.SendSms("3125551212", "test message", "3125551111"); 
    }
    catch( Exception e )
    {
      // Look at the exception here in a debugger
    }

    Right click your project, go to properties, and click on the security tab and click "This is a full trust application"

    That will have the wonderful effect of totally preventing the program from loading into the browser on most client machines, unless they shut down security.

    A much better approach is to have a WebService that is configured to do the SMS work. Then the browsfer based WPF application can just make a safe call to the webservice.

    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.
