i'm trying to invoke a webapi with the new System.Net.WebClient and didnot found any special examples. The goal is simulate a traditional form post with some fields and a file. how can i do it using the System.Net.WebClient or where can i find some examples? thanks in advance I think you need this: http://dzimchuk.net/post/uploading-a-file-over-http-in-net This is a very well written blog. See the last example. There are a lot of examples if you do a fast google search, anyway, here goes some samples: Simple GET WebClient webClient = new WebClient(); webClient.Headers["Accept"] = "application

I used Nuget to install the "Microsoft ASP.NET Web API Client Libraries" to get the latest System.Net.Http assembly for use in Windows Phone 7.1 XNA and Silverlight projects. It installs just fine into my WP7.1 XNA projects, but doesn't allow me to install it into the WP7.1 Silverlight projects. I even tried installing it directly from the Package Manager Console into a newly created WP7.1 Silverlight project and got this Error response: PM> Install-Package System.Net.Http Attempting to resolve dependency 'Microsoft.Net.Http (≥ 2.0.20710.0 && < 2.1)'. You are downloading Microsoft.Net.Http

I have a problem creating application to send email. I already have one working as a Windows Forms Application and then decided to do the same from the empty project, because I need to make a background application now. I used the System.Net.Mail namespace for that in a Windows Forms. Then added the same code to the new project. However, I get the following error: The type or namespace name 'Mail' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Net'. The 'System.Net' reference is included in the project references list and I can't find anything named 'System.Net.Mail' in the list of possible

When I install the NuGet package for WebApi, it gives me version 1.0.0.0 of System.Net.Http, yet it references version 2. I cannot seem to find version 2 for the life of me. When I download .net 4.5 I get System.Net.Http version 4.0.315.x, but I cannot use that because the Web Api assemblies refer to version 2.0.0.0. Anyone know where I can find this version 2.0.0.0? I've tried the NuGet package manager, mvc4, .net 4.5, and nothing is giving me version 2. Thanks in advance. Add the below configuration inside your Web.config file under <system.web> node (assuming your app runs on .NET 4.5,

I want to create a simple http proxy server that does some very basic processing on the http headers (i.e. if header x == y, do z). The server may need to support hundreds of users. I can write the server in C# (pretty easy) or c++ (much harder). However, would a C# version have as good of performance as a C++ version? If not, would the difference in performance be big enough that it would not make sense to write it in C#? You can use unsafe C# code and pointers in critical bottleneck points to make it run faster. Those behave much like C++ code and I believe it executes as fast . But most of

I can't find any proper description in the documentation for what this actually does. Does it check for the existence of A records or CNAME records or both? My understanding is that in .NET 4, this throws a SocketException if the host does not exist, and this is confirmed by my testing. This is the list of addresses returned by var ips = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry("microsoft.com").AddressList; foreach (var ip in ips) Console.WriteLine(ip); // output 64.4.11.37 65.55.58.201 And these are the A records pulled from network-tools.com, DNS query. Answer records microsoft.com A 64.4.11.37 microsoft

Let's suppose I have the following variable: System.Net.HttpStatusCode status = System.Net.HttpStatusCode.OK; How can I check if this is a success status code or a failure one? For instance, I can do the following: int code = (int)status; if(code >= 200 && code < 300) { //Success } I can also have some kind of white list: HttpStatusCode[] successStatus = new HttpStatusCode[] { HttpStatusCode.OK, HttpStatusCode.Created, HttpStatusCode.Accepted, HttpStatusCode.NonAuthoritativeInformation, HttpStatusCode.NoContent, HttpStatusCode.ResetContent, HttpStatusCode.PartialContent }; if(successStatus
