Use of HttpListener

Question

I have the following HTTP listener method, greatly inspired by MSDN\'s example use of the HttpListener class. I\'m fairly new to programming and I\'m not sure where to go from h

Answer 1

You seem to have removed the comments that are mentioned on the MSDN HttpListener Class page:

// URI prefixes are required, for example "http://contoso.com:8080/index/".

So just call it like that:

public static void Main(string[] args)
{
    HttpListener(new[] { "http://localhost/" });
}

But please note this example will handle only one request and then exit. If your follow-up question is then "How can I make it handle multiple requests?", see Handling multiple requests with C# HttpListener.

Answer 2

you can do something like this :

   public void ListenTraces()
    {
        httpListener.Prefixes.Add(PORT_HOST);
        try
        {
            httpListener.Start();
        }
        catch (HttpListenerException hlex)
        {
            log.Warn("Can't start the agent to listen transaction" + hlex);
            return;
        }
        log.Info("Now ready to receive traces...");
        while (true)
        {
            var context = httpListener.GetContext(); // get te context 

            log.Info("New trace connexion incoming");
           Console.WriteLine(context.SomethingYouWant);
        }
    }
