MIX09 Session Videos – How I Did It

On my last post I introduced the feeds I created to subscribe to Mix09 session videos.

In case someone is interested on how I did it, here it is:

<%@ WebHandler Language="C#" Class="mix09" %>

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Web;
using System.Linq;
using System.Xml.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Xml;

public class mix09 : IHttpHandler, IHttpAsyncHandler
{
    class WebClientOpenReadAsyncResult : IAsyncResult
    {
        private AsyncCallback callback;

        public WebClientOpenReadAsyncResult()
        {
            this.IsCompleted = true;
            this.CompletedSynchronously = true;
        }

        public WebClientOpenReadAsyncResult(AsyncCallback callback)
        {
            this.callback = callback;
            this.IsCompleted = false;
            this.CompletedSynchronously = false;
        }

        public object AsyncState
        {
            get { return null; }
        }

        public bool CompletedSynchronously { get; private set; }

        public System.Threading.WaitHandle AsyncWaitHandle
        {
            get { throw new InvalidOperationException("ASP.NET should not use this property ."); }
        }

        public bool IsCompleted { get; private set; }

        public Stream Stream { get; private set; }

        public void Completed(object sender, OpenReadCompletedEventArgs e)
        {
            this.IsCompleted = true;
            this.Stream = e.Result;
            if (this.callback != null)
            {
                this.callback(this);
            }
        }

    }

    private static Uri mixSessionsUri = new Uri("http://sessions.visitmix.com/RSS");

    private HttpContext context;

    private string type;

    #region IHttpHandler Members

        if (wc == null)
        {
            return;
        }

        OutputFeed(wc.OpenRead(mixSessionsUri));
    }

    #endregion

    #region IHttpAsyncHandler Members

    public IAsyncResult BeginProcessRequest(HttpContext context, AsyncCallback cb, object extraData)
    {
        WebClient wc = InitializeRequest(context);

        if (wc == null)
        {
            return new WebClientOpenReadAsyncResult();
        }

        WebClientOpenReadAsyncResult ar = new WebClientOpenReadAsyncResult(cb);

        wc.OpenReadCompleted += ar.Completed;

        wc.OpenReadAsync(mixSessionsUri, extraData);

        return ar;
    }

}
