TcpSocketClient read timeout

[zillemarco]

How can I set a timeout on a call to ReadAsync? I mean, I connect to a TCP server and I need to keep receiving data until it doesn't send anymore and to do so I do a ReadAsync inside a loop until it returns 0 bytes read. The problem is that if I don't set a timeout, the last call to ReadAsync will hold forever.

I already tried setting the client's ReadStream.ReadTimeout but it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Update: this is how I setup my receiving method

async Task<byte[]>  ReceiveAsync()
{
    if (client.ReadStream.ReadTimeout != 10)
        client.ReadStream.ReadTimeout = 10;

    List<byte> result = new List<byte>();

    int readLength = 0;
    do
    {
        byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
        readLength = await client.ReadStream.ReadAsync(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);

        if (readLength > 0)
        {
            if (readLength < buffer.Length)
                Array.Resize(ref buffer, readLength);

            result.AddRange(buffer);
        }

    } while (readLength > 0);

    return result.ToArray();
}
