Properties
Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
MaxHttpCollectionKeys | Gets or sets the maximum number of keys stored in a T: [System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection]. | |
MediaTypeMappings | Gets the mutable collection of MediaTypeMapping objects that match HTTP requests to media types. | |
RequiredMemberSelector | Gets or sets the IRequiredMemberSelector instance used to determine required members. | |
SupportedEncodings | Gets the mutable collection of character encodings supported bythis MediaTypeFormatter. | |

Methods
Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
CanReadType | Queries whether this MediaTypeFormatter can deserializean object of the specified type. | |
CanWriteType | Queries whether this MediaTypeFormatter can serializean object of the specified type. | |
Equals | (Inherited from Object.) | |
Finalize | (Inherited from Object.) | |
GetDefaultValueForType | Gets the default value for the specified type. | |
GetHashCode | (Inherited from Object.) | |
GetPerRequestFormatterInstance | Returns a specialized instance of the MediaTypeFormatter that can format a response for the given parameters. | |
GetType | (Inherited from Object.) | |
MemberwiseClone | (Inherited from Object.) | |
ReadFromStreamAsync | Asynchronously deserializes an object of the specified type. | |
SelectCharacterEncoding | Determines the best character encoding for reading or writing an HTTP entity body, given a set of content headers. | |
SetDefaultContentHeaders | Sets the default headers for content that will be formatted using this formatter. This method is called from the ObjectContent constructor. This implementation sets the Content-Type header to the value of mediaType if it is not null. If it is null it sets the Content-Type to the default media type of this formatter. If the Content-Type does not specify a charset it will set it using this formatters configured Encoding. | |
ToString | (Inherited from Object.) | |
WriteToStreamAsync | Asynchronously writes an object of the specified type. |

Extension Methods
Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
AddQueryStringMapping(String, String, MediaTypeHeaderValue) | Overloaded. Updates the given set of formatter of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with Uris containing a specific query parameter and value. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | |
AddQueryStringMapping(String, String, String) | Overloaded. Updates the given set of formatter of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with Uris containing a specific query parameter and value. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | |
AddRequestHeaderMapping(String, String, StringComparison, Boolean, MediaTypeHeaderValue) | Overloaded. Updates the given set of formatter of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with a specific HTTP request header field with a specific value. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | |
AddRequestHeaderMapping(String, String, StringComparison, Boolean, String) | Overloaded. Updates the given set of formatter of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with a specific HTTP request header field with a specific value. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | |
AddUriPathExtensionMapping(String, MediaTypeHeaderValue) | Overloaded. Updates the given formatter's set of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with Uris ending with the given uriPathExtension. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) | |
AddUriPathExtensionMapping(String, String) | Overloaded. Updates the given formatter's set of MediaTypeMapping elements so that it associates the mediaType with Uris ending with the given uriPathExtension. (Defined by MediaTypeFormatterExtensions.) |
