List all containers in an Azure blob client - ListContainers method missing?

I'm trying to obtain a list of all containers within an Azure Storage blob client using WindowsAzure.Storage v8.5.0.

MSDN doesn't offer documentation for v8.5.0 - its latest is v8.4.0, but even if I downgrade to this version I still have the same problem: MSDN says that there's a ListContainers method, but intellisense in Visual Studio says there isn't, and I get a build error if I insist on trying to call such a method.

I've checked and the version of the assembly in the \bin directory is v8.5.0 (and v8.4.0, when I try that)

I've used .NET Reflector to look inside the packages and can find no such method.

So what has happened to ListContainers, and if it's been removed then how else can I list all containers?

.Net Core version of Storage Client library does not support synchronous methods as of today. There's an open ticket on Github for that: https://github.com/Azure/azure-storage-net/issues/367.

To list containers, you will need to use Async methods. Please use ListContainersSegmentedAsync method for this purpose.
