ListBlobs not visible in list of functions in microsoft.azurestorage

Question

I work on an aspnetcore 2.0 project.

I want to use Blob AzureStorage, and I need to list the files in a container.

I added the nuget WindowsAzure.Storage 8.4.

using this line of code:

    var results = container.ListBlobs();

I see an error saying CloudBlobContainer does not contain a definition for ListBlobs.

Anyone got this error before?

Based on this Github issue, sync methods are not implemented in .Net Core/.Net Standard version of the library. From this issue:

Thanks for bringing this up. You are right. Our NetCore/Netstandard support does not yet include Sync implementation of the APIs. Please note that this change is on our Roadmap as one of the parity items for the transition to .NetCore and we will update with more specific timelines as soon as it is available.

Even though the issue is 1st reported for Storage Client Library version 7.2.1, but looking at the Roadmap, this issue is still open.

You may want to ask this question on Github to check the status of this particular issue.
