    How can I do this in a PCL ?

    Protected Async Sub OnPropertyChanged(<CallerMemberName> Optional propertyName As String = Nothing)
        Await Windows.ApplicationModel.Core.CoreApplication.MainView.CoreWindow. (CoreDispatcherPriority.High, (Sub()
        RaiseEvent PropertyChanged(Me, New PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName))
        End Sub))
    End Sub

    Hi theresonlyonefinmaf,

    Do you have some speciafic requirements to use the PCL? You can use the APIs easily in the Class Library (Universal Windows) as in the uwp project.

    Best regards,

    Breeze

    Hi theresonlyonefinmaf,

    Here is the forum for Developing Universal Windows apps, and we are focusing on developing universal windows apps issue. If your issue is about Xamarin Forms, you can ask it in the Xamarin Forms official website.

    By the way, In Xamarin Forms, you can use the Xamarin.Forms.Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread Method in the PCL, it invokes an Action on the device main (UI) thread as the Dispatcher in UWP.

    Best regards,

    Breeze

    Is there any known reason why BeginInvokeOnMainThread would not be invoked, i.e. jumped over. I have a class file with numerous calls to BeginInvokeOnMainThread in different methods that work, but this one doesn't execute. I can place breakpoints in the others, but in this one forget it. I originally had the same code in a separate class with the same issue. I am using them in order to asynchronously end DataServiceQuery'ies in the PCL of Xamarin cross-platform forms solution. I know that the query I am making is returning a result by just making it using a browser.

    There are no associated error messages that I have seen, directly or in Output.

    Is there a limit on the number of invokes?

    The reality was that since I was not in the main UI thread of the PCL but in a background thread, that I didn't need to run the query on the main thread via BeginInvokeOnMainThread.
