I've got to use the http protocol to communicate with another machine as
part of a Web Service using HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse . As such,
timing is important.
When I create the HttpWebRequest as shown in the help example:
Dim myReq As HttpWebRequest = _
WebRequest.Crea te("http://www.contoso.com/")
does this actually go out and try and establish some sort of connection
with the remote site? If so, I'll need to spin this off in a thread so I
can create a timeout.
Thanks,

Do you mean the Create as opposed to another method? or the WebRequest object
in general?

No, it can't. Otherwise, you would have a hard time setting HTTP headers
that affect the underlying TCP connection ;-)

The request isn't executed until you try to get the response stream.

Is it possible to create a WebRequest instance and, instead of giving

I'm running the following code to read a URL into a string. When the

Any suggestions?

I appreciate anyone's insight on this as I am new to web programming with .NET.
I have a simple method which I use to send various HTTP requests to a web

However, after a number of invocations (variant) the program just hangs on

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
