Keep a http connection alive in C#?

Question

How do i keep a connection alive in C#? I\'m not doing it right. Am i suppose to create an HttpWebRequest obj and use it to go to any URLs i need? i dont see a way to visit

Answer 1

Set HttpWebRequest.KeepAlive property True .NET will take care of the rest. It's just database connection pool. Works transparently.

You can create new connection freely .NET will figure it out that you are connecting an already connected server and will use it. Also depends on your Net.ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit number it will establish new connections (if you do multhithreading).
