HttpWebRequest IO/Bandwidth usage C#
I am trying to measure how much data is sent and received by a HttpWebRequest (and Response). As far as I can tell, it is only possible to know the length of the request and response content, in other words the body, not the header. Does anyone know how to get the full length? Either header and body to be summed or possibly just a mean...
HttpWebResponse, and chunked http. How to read one single chunk?
There's a binary file on a remote server, that I wish to stream to my client. I issue a GET request and the response is an HTTP header + body that has the binary file, in chunks.

C# HttpWebResponse Comet problem
Hello! I am wondering how I would go about reading a persistent connection with HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse.

Trying to read non-ending byte stream asynchronously in C#
Hello Everyone, I am connecting to a server which sends updates about financial information. The code I post below will work correctly for a few minutes then usually blows up when it tries to do an EndRead (where I have noted), because there was 0 bytes at that moment to be read. Obviously in the financial world some things can stay t...
Is there a way to examine WebResponse without affecting the underlying response stream in .NET?
After a call to initial HttpWebResponse.GetResponseStream() and reading through the stream, that stream is done for and cannot be reused. I have a situation where I need to examine the content of the response and if it is of a certain data, get another page and then pass the new response down the line. Otherwise, pass down the original...
