[Client] Unable to implement online operations as per documentation (DatasyncServiceClient<TEntity>)

[Nicmanthecodeman]

Describe the bug

I cannot implement online operations from the client after following the documentation. More specifically, I cannot create a DatasyncServiceClient since its access modifier is marked as internal.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to the documentation to implement online operations.
2. Follow the steps Creating a Http Client Factory and Create a Datasync Service Client
3. See the error as shown in the image below.

Expected behavior

The DatasyncServiceClient class should be able to be instantiated. If this should not be the case, ammend the documentation in order to provide clear guidance regarding the implementation of online operations.

What platforms?

• Server:

  • .NET 8
  • CommunityToolkit.Datasync.Server --version 8.0.0
  • CommunityToolkit.Datasync.Server.EntityFrameworkCore --version 8.0.0
  • MS SQL
  • Windows (Local)

• Client:

  • Windows
  • Local device
  • .NET 8
  • MAUI
  • CommunityToolkit.Datasync.Client --version 8.0.0

Can confirm I am also getting the same.

Ooops :-) Easy fix - will be in 8.0.1 (which I'm hoping to get released today)

Hi @adrianhall - thanks for the fix. I'm converting a Xamarin Forms app to .NET MAUI and attempting to migrate from Azure Mobile Client to DataSync and I was wondering where the best place to ask questions are? I'm not sure if the issues I'm facing are bugs or not setting things up correctly.

Hi @raymond-dillon - a quick note that I do not generally go back to closed issues. A closed issue is perhaps the worst place to ask questions.

The discussions area is the best place to ask questions. If I determine its a bug, then I can turn it into an issue directly. I'm also happy to have a discussion as an open issue.
