VS 2010 WebClient.DownloadString Took Too Time If Server Is Down?
Jul 6, 2010working in an intranet sit .downloadString took less than one second,but some times the server is down (maitenance or so on) and the the result took maybe one minute or so.Is there any way to set an lower interval?for example, if the server doesn't respond in 9 seconds return empty string, or so on.
I've read some about async comm but not sure what is the best solution.
C# - Convert A Date And Time To UTC Time Based On The Time Zone Of The User?
Sep 6, 2009I have an ASP.NET application with a SQL Server back end. I am storing all my dates in UTC format and doing the appropriate conversions to the local time zone of the browser viewing it. One of the pages asks for a start date and end date (no times).
I am taking the start date and setting the time to 00:00:00 hours (midnight) and I'm taking the End time and adding a time of 23:59:59, so that the date range covers the whole day. Now what I'm trying to do is do a SQL query to do a search for records in this date range. The problem is, the data in SQL is in UTC time and the user is typing their dates and times in their local date and times. My quickest solution was to convert the date and time to UTC, then search the records. However, by doing this, I am to believe ASP.NET converts the given time and date to UTC based on the server time zone. How can I convert a date and time to UTC time based on the time zone of the user?

Webclient.DownloadStringAsync?
Jun 20, 2012as per usual i am a little confused. I know DownloadStringAsync runs on a threaded pool with a default min and max threads limit, but what confuses is how would i call DownloadStringAsync say for example ten times.Example.I have an array with 10 URLS. Surely i would not use a for each loop of the array index to pass the url address while each time calling DownloadStringAsync(New Uri("someArray(index)") surely we can pass say a range of items from the array and let DownloadStringAsync decide on the threaded pool how many to process each time?

View 2 RepliesThreaded Webclient Still Slow?
Nov 24, 2008Here is my webclient class that I am using to check multiple web sites at the same time. I am threading the class so each thread is creating a new getHtml Class. It seems that it still is waiting on something, because it only returns about 2 pages per second, which is great, but I think it should return faster if they are truly running on separate threads.When i made a similar perl script it would return 50 pages in about 10 seconds so it was much faster than this webclient method, unfortunately I don't want a cli. Let me know what you think. I have tried setting the proxy to null, but that didn't do anything.

Using The UploadFile Webclient Method?
Jun 3, 2010I am trying to use the UploadFile WebClient method to a HTTP server which is operating on a device, however when I do this from my code at the client end (a PC), the server crashes. If I upload the same file from my browser on the PC to the same device running the same server, it works just fine. When I track the code on the web server there appears to be a difference in the header which is sent to the server. It is a 'Post', however the filename doesn't seem to be there. Is there anyway of reading the data that the UploadFile method sends?

WebClient Download / How To Detech Bad URL
Feb 27, 2012We recently started playing with a vb.net 2008 WebClient on a Windows 7/64 workstation to download files from a web site to the local machine.It works except that we cannot detect if the URL is invalid. It doesn't throw an error. If we use Async it does trigger the Download Complete event but there was no file since the URL was incorrect.Is there a way to detect an incorrect URL?I also noticed that the events does not give you either the URL or the file?
