Implement A Continuous Http Stream Which Uses The Same GET Request But The Connection Stays Open
Oct 26, 2010
My app currently sends GET httpwebrequests and parses the content after reading the response stream for each request and the repeats this process over and over. I need to implement a continuous http stream which uses the same GET request but the connection stays open, from what I understand. how would I change my existing code to do this?
The streaming HTTP implementation allows one to cosume data in real time over a single persistent HTTp request. It access a data feed that continues to send activities on that response. I need to read data from the response, process it(parse and store) and then continue reading from the response and continue this process until the connection is closed. Would this be like a asynchronous request instead?

I have this code that was working in a proof of concept app I had - but now will not work.
For Each ddfile As String In ddfiles Dim MyThread As Thread ' simple new thread Dim newFS As FSObject = New FSObject() 'new FSObject which is a file object I made up' used because i needed to keep the name and index matched so the callback function had something to work with

I'm attempting to login to a cPanel using a POST Request in VB.Net. I have the correct credentials when logging in and when posting I still get an 'Unauthorized (401)' response when it should be '301' (analysed using Tamper Data Firefox Add-On). Below is my post request information and function.[code...]

I'm attempting to update a legacy VB6 component (not written by me) to the .NET platform. There is one function which posts an XML string to a URL:
Function PostToUrl(ByRef psUrl, ByRef psData, Byref psResponseText, ByRef psErrorMsg, ByRef psUsername, ByRef psPassword)
On Error Resume Next
Dim objWinHTTP
[CODE]...
I've updated this to:
Public Function PostXml(ByVal XML As String) As Boolean
Try
Dim URL As String = My.Settings.NTSPostURL
'TODO: supply username and password! '
[CODE]...
However when I run the .NET code the server returns the error '403 Forbidden - protocol error' on the line: Using Response As HttpWebResponse = DirectCas (HTTPRequest.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse). The VB6 code runs fine. identify any discrepancies between the two that might be causing this?

in an winForm app in VS2010 win 7 compiling to x86, I try to do what Alvas.Audio seems to work. See (c# ex: [URL] for reference.
Dim data() As Byte = wr.ReadData(second * i, second)
The result give me data.length()=0. I do not have any exception, I can read format from it and whatever reader I use I got this problem.EDIT : After some tests, it seems like the uncompressed file I create in the first step (in PCM format, with .wav extension) can not be recognized by the Alvas.audio library for the second step. I must miss something around Audio file markups or something alike.
Here is the code that might be the source (basically this is step 1):
Dim functOut As String = String.Empty
Dim wr As Alvas.Audio.IAudioReader = Nothing
Dim fs As IO.FileStream = Nothing
[code]....
How can I write the resulted stream to be sure I can read it again later?

Is there any way we could get directly say the 1000 characters after the first 5000 characters, skipping everything before that after sending in an HTTP request to an HTTPS page using either GET or POST in VB.NET? The reason why I ask this question is because in one of the webpage I am trying the get through my program, the website is sending response data in chunks with the first chunk containing some javascript garbage that I have no interest in, the only data I care is in the second chunk and
how to get the second chunk after receiving the first one since it is within the same HTTP request.It would save some time and Internet traffic if I can skip the first chunk that I do not need.Is that possible or I am just day dreaming?
ADDED: Here is how a typical header of the response I am getting from the webpage I am trying to get:
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2011 13:21:56 GMT
Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=1AF1AF9EF936E1CB2FA85B750EDC67C4; Path=****some path******; Secure
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1[code].....
Not sure if that helps, but as you can see, the chunk size is not visible to me, there is no "Trailer" in the header as well.

Okay, i've tried httpwebrequest, webclient, and a couple of others methods; using the headers parameter of each to set headers and then either opening a response stream or simply setting the system.net.webclient method to download a response into a string. Put simply, how do I make a simple GET request with a few headers and read the data back! I am very, very stuck in a hole right now..

I have a Sub Menu which has a list of values and when the user selects one it sets a variable to the checked value. I was wondering if it is possible to group them into a control so only 1 can be checked at a time? And also so the menu structure doesn't close each time one of these options is selected.
I have attached a quick ScreenShot to show what i mean of the menu.

I'm trying to send a HTTP request to a servers interface.But I'm really confused about how to specify the parameters I want to send to the servers interface method. What I've done so far.My server interface only accepts POST requests, that's why I'm using POST and asked if something is wrong with the way I use the parameters.
Dim parameters As String = "?text=test&type=person"
Dim buffer As Byte() = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(parameters)
Dim WebReq As HttpWebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create(NameRecPage), HttpWebRequest)
'NameRecPage is the url

Are these spellings correct in my content? What is content type about? What does it say and how do I determine which value to put in there?I don't know if thats the correct value for ContentType, actually I just want to receive some JSON fromatted data returned as string.

I have used the WinHttp.WinHttpRequest object in VB6 to make HTTP POST requests many times. It works great: .Open the URL, then .SetRequestHeader (however many are needed) and then .Send the body. The .Send method makes the actual connection and sends everything to the server at once.How to I emulate this behavior in .NET? The examples I've tried with System.Net.HttpWebRequest open a stream with .GetRequestStream() and then write the body to the stream. Unfortunately, the server is responding immediately to the .GetRequestStream method and therefore never sees the POST body.I am obviously trying to connect up some legacy stuff here, but am having a hard time Googling the problem or finding another approach in .NET.

I have coded very simple asp pages to return an image when requested. But I need to do this from a vb.net application. So I assume I need to create a mini http web server. I have code for some that does not support asp or anything like that. Is there another method to return an image? Anyone have an example of this? Or again, do I need to find a web server control or app to use?

I'm looking for some advice on how to optimise the following process:App reads csv file.For each line in the file an XML message is created Each XML message is posted to a URL via a HTTPWebRequest This process was designed to handle low volumes of messages (up to about 200 at a time), un suprisingly thinks have changed and it is now expected to handle up to about 3000 at a time.
The code used to post the message is here: Public Function PostXml(ByVal XML As String) As HttpStatusCode
[Code]...
I am currently restricted to sending multiple messages due to restrictions elsewhere in the system. There is a noticable delay in responding to the request at the other end (the receiver) but this is outside my control. I am trying to ensure that the process of sending is as efficient as possible (external factors notwithstanding).

How can one pass http get or post methods to a windows application? I require a webserver to send a get method to my windows form application that will querry a database then reply back to a webserverI'm developing a windows based search engine that searches a MySQL database. It receives a keyword from an SMS gateway software as a HTTP get request and should reply to the gateway software using the same HTTP request.This is my code. It is correctly searching the database but I don't know how to receive the get methods on the application however it's sending the messages to SMS gateway.

How can i retrieve the HTTP Request generated by the web browser control in .net (3.5). When the user navigates to an html page it may contain images, for every image the web browser control needs to make a HTTP Request. I want to display all HTTP Requests made by the web browser control. Does the web browser control use the httpWebRequest / httpWebResponse Classes internally? if so how can i access these objects?

I have a form in VS2010, written in VB, and it has a subroutine calling for information out on the web using an httpwebrequest object. It takes a while for the response, and I would like the subroutine to write a message to the form (into a Label) for the user to see while waiting for the application to respond.
I tried writing the message with a Backgroundworker and then as a second thread. I got it to write the message, but it always seems to wait for the http response before writing the text. How do I write the text immediately, while waiting for the data?

Say you wanted to set a status message
' Set status
ssMainMessages.Text = msgValidating
Then perform an action that requires a http request that takes around 5 seconds then you want to display the result of that
' Set status
ssMainMessages.Text = msgValidated
It will only always display the second message? Its like it jumps the first part of the code and goes straight to httprequest.even if you put the update,system,threading.thread.sleep ....
