Hello,
I am trying to implement a simple windows application that reads from a specified url.
Currently am using the WebClient class to access the url and the OpenRead() member to retrieve a readable stream which I then read with a StreamReader.
This works fine for url within my domain.
The problem starts when I try to access url's outside my domain (such as www.yahoo.com). When I do this the connection times out. Obviously I need to connect through a proxy. However, I found no way to define a proxy for the WebClient class. (The WebRequest class has a Proxy property but it does not have a method to retrieve streams for READING).
What should I do?

Hi aviv,
You'll need to use the CookieCollectio n property.
I have an example in this article: http://odetocode.com/Articles/162.aspx

You can set the proxy used by the WebClient class by using the
GlobalProxySele ction.Select object. As for using WebRequest, you're correct
this object has no methods for reading -- those methods are found on the
WebResponse class. Once you have your WebRequest object, call GetResponse()
and then use GetResponseStre am() on the returned object to read the response
data.

I'm trying to create a proxy server - one that will modify requests
made through it.
I've started with Tiny HTTP Proxy by SUZUKI Hisao which is built on
BaseHTTPServer - and I'm starting to get somewhere.
It listens on local ports and tells you whats goign through it.
I'm in a slightly unusual situation though - all internet traffic goes
through a proxy - I have to set the proxy settings to dav-serv:8080 to
work.

All our internet traffic has to go through a proxy-server at location
'dav-serv:8080' and I need to make a socket connection through it.
The reason (with code example) is as follows :

Hello All,
I am using HttpWebRequest to fetch webpages in my ASP.net C#

from within a network that uses proxy the request does not work. I tried to

Hi,
I was using the FtpWebRequest class in .NET 2.0 for an FTP transport over
SSL. It is working well, however the new requirement for my application is
to tranfer files via an HTTP proxy. The FtpWebRequest class supports such a
proxy, however, the documentation states that the FTP client can only
download files and list directories (so the transfer is read-only). The
problem is that the application is transferring files both ways - to...

A C# (.NET 2) application which uses the System.Net.HttpWebRequest object to
request a resource over HTTPS is failing following the installation of a new
proxy server on our internal network with 407 Proxy Authentication Required.
The same request through the old proxy succeeds.
The same request to an HTTP address through the new proxy succeeds.
Also, the request succeeds when forced to use Basic authentication but fails
on NTLM.

Hello folks,
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.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
