webclient

Behold the code: using (var client = new WebClient()) { using (var stream = client.OpenWrite("http://localhost/", "POST")) { stream.Write(post, 0, post.Length); } } Now, how do I read the HTTP output? It looks like you have a byte[] of data to post; in which case I expect you'll find it easier to use: byte[] response = client.UploadData(address, post); And if the response is text, something like: string s = client.Encoding.GetString(response); (or your choice of Encoding - perhaps Encoding.UTF8 ) If you want to keep streams everywhere and avoid allocating huge arrays of bytes, which is good

Is there any way to know the original name of a file you download using the WebClient when the Uri doesn't contain the name? This happens for example in sites where the download originates from a dynamic page where the name isn't known beforehand. Using my browser, the file gets the orrect name. But how can this be done using the WebClient? E.g. WebClient wc= new WebClient(); var data= wc.DownloadData(@"www.sometime.com\getfile?id=123"); Using DownloadFile() isn't a solution since this method needs a filename in advance. You need to examine the response headers and see if there is a content

I am using VSTS 2008 + C# + .Net 3.5 + ASP.Net + IIS 7.0 to develop a Windows Forms application at client side to upload a file, and at server side I receive this file using an aspx file. I find my client side application will hang after click the button to trigger upload event. Any ideas what is wrong and how to solve? Thanks! Client side code, public partial class Form1 : Form { private static WebClient client = new WebClient(); private static ManualResetEvent uploadLock = new ManualResetEvent(false); private static void Upload() { try { Uri uri = new Uri("http://localhost/Default2.aspx");

my name is loran and i'm using asp.net - c# in my project. i'm trying getting the exactly html source from a facebook page: ( http://www.facebook.com/search.php?q=loranzur%40yahoo.com ). i'm trying to get the id number into a string variable (in the source you can search for : Profile.php?id= ). i succeed to copy the source to a string variable using WebClient or HttpWebRequest, but the resaults is not the same as i open the "view source" by myself. the source that i copied to the the variable was missing a lot of data (the id number is one example). is there any option to copy the full source

So I thought Webclient.DownloadFileAysnc would have a default timeout but looking around the documentation I cannot find anything about it anywhere so I'm guessing it doesn't. I am trying to download a file from the internet like so: using (WebClient wc = new WebClient()) { wc.DownloadProgressChanged += ((sender, args) => { IndividualProgress = args.ProgressPercentage; }); wc.DownloadFileCompleted += ((sender, args) => { if (args.Error == null) { if (!args.Cancelled) { File.Move(filePath, Path.ChangeExtension(filePath, ".jpg")); } mr.Set(); } else { ex = args.Error; mr.Set(); } }); wc

First time using Silverlight ever! Following an online tutorial. I'm creating an app which allows the user to search for stories from the Digg website using a WebClient and displays them in a data grid in a Silverlight control. Here's the code: private void btnSearch_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { string topic = txtTopic.Text; string diggUrl = String.Format("http://services.digg.com/stories/topic/{0}?count=20&appkey=http%3A%2F%2Fscottgu.com", topic); WebClient diggService = new WebClient(); diggService.DownloadStringCompleted += new DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler(diggService

I am using VSTS 2008 + C# + .Net 3.5 + ASP.Net + IIS 7.0 to develop a console application at client side to upload a file, and at server side I receive this file using an aspx file. From client side, I always notice (from console output) the upload percetage of the file increase from 1% to 50%, then to 100% suddenly. Any ideas what is wrong? Here is my client side code, class Program { private static WebClient client = new WebClient(); private static ManualResetEvent uploadLock = new ManualResetEvent(false); private static void Upload() { try { Uri uri = new Uri("http://localhost/Default.aspx"

HtmlUnit is amazing, in Java at least I have had no problems with it. Unfortunately when switching the code over to the Android platform, it is giving me errors when I try to create a web-client. import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; import com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.WebClient; public class AndroidTestActivity extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); final WebClient webClient = new WebClient(); } } Warnings it gives me
