How to verify the downloaded file completeness with webclient

3 New Member
Hello All,

I can use WebClient.Downl oadFile Method to download target file from the website,

like WebClient.Downl oadFile("http://www.abc.com/a.pdf", "D:\a.pdf")

but how can I verify the file is exactly the same as the source file?

For example, when we try to download some big files from the internet e.g. Win XP - service pack 2, the IE download windows may sometime report download completed and terminate the download process, but when you go check the downloaded file, the file size may only a few hundred KB.

Is there a way to check the file size on the internet? and allow us to compare the file size after download? thanks.

I haven't been able to find a good example of client side processing of multiple downloaded files. I believe the content type is APPLICATION/OCTET-STREAM. Can you point me to a good example of this? Our application must be able to send and receive multiple files in one stream. ...

I followed the instructions from MSDN for Webclient UploadFile and I get an error: Could not find file 'C:\testfile.xls'. If I add the file (c:\testfile.xls) to the server I do not get the error and the file is copied from the server to the server, rather than from the web client to the server. Please help!!!

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. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

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,...
