Adds IAsyncOrganizationService and IAsyncDiscoveryService with async versions of interface methods to the CRM Dynamics SDK.

microsoft.xrm.sdk.async's Issues

Task.Run?

I was glad to find this package, however, looking at the source code, I noticed Task.Run is being used to wrap everything in async methods. e.g. : https://github.com/tyrotoxin/Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Async/blob/master/OrganizationService/AsyncOrganizationServiceProxy.AsyncMethods.cs

Task.Run uses Threadpool threads, which defeats the purpose of using asynchrony for I/O bound operations and the purpose of this library which would be avoiding unnecessary threads.

The hit is negligible here because as soon as the first await is hit, the threadpool thread is released and there isn't anything else after the await which will need the threadpool thread, however, it's still being borrowed for zero gain. You can simply return the result of Task.Factory.FromAsync from the implementations to make them truly asynchronous.

Authentication via connection strings?

Would love to be able to use connection strings similar to how the newer SDK versions allow connections to be created

Authentication to MSA services is not supported

I am using the latest version of the library to connect to the CRM but I get the error "Authentication to MSA services is not supported"

I can't understand why that error is thrown ?
I don't get the error while using OrgService from the CRM package but I do get error when I use OrgService from this library.

Not to mention Async methods fails without throwing any errors.

Any way to post a bit more details on using the

Hello,

First of all, thank you for the hard work on this !

Trying to work out on how to "call" the async proxy.
Can you post a small working sample ?
i can't seem to figure out how to make a async connection.

// Create Async Proxy directly
// (implements both IDiscoveryService and IAsyncDiscoveryService)
var asyncService =
new AsyncDiscoveryServiceProxy(
OrganizationUri,
HomeRealmUri,
Credentials,
null);

Thank you in advance.
