What does HttpWebResponse .Close() do?

I found one issue about HttpWebResponse .
I tried to get a huge webpage (i.e. http://wx.msn.com) with
HttpWebRequest timeout set; reading the response stream is still
controlled by timeout. However, the HttpWebResponse .Close takes ages.
I suppose HttpWebResponse want to do a clean resouce clean-up. So, if
the website doen't finish sending chuckes of HTTP packets, the client
would not return from Close().

Is there anybody clear about the inside of
HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse ?

Hi Morgan,
download a copy of reflector http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet/ and you
can see for yourself what goes on inside those methods, it is a very useful
tool.

Hi, I've got an HttpWebResponse object, all working fine. I'm getting the underlying stream and currently writing it to a file using the ReadToEnd() method. All happy. I want to do a bit of manipulation before writing this to the disk; can anyone point me in the right direction of how to copy it to a byte array so I can make my mods before writing it to the disk?

But I keep getting timeout errors: "Exception Details: System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed-out." I read somewhere that generally these errors come from not closing a HTTPWebResponse connection before opening another. But -- to my knowledge -- I've shut down connections in every way I...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: 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,...
