Constructors

HttpListener()

Initializes a new instance of the HttpListener class.

Properties

AuthenticationSchemes

Gets or sets the scheme used to authenticate clients.

AuthenticationSchemeSelectorDelegate

Gets or sets the delegate called to determine the protocol used to authenticate clients.

DefaultServiceNames

Gets a default list of Service Provider Names (SPNs) as determined by registered prefixes.

ExtendedProtectionPolicy

Gets or sets the ExtendedProtectionPolicy to use for extended protection for a session.

ExtendedProtectionSelectorDelegate

Gets or sets the delegate called to determine the ExtendedProtectionPolicy to use for each request.

IgnoreWriteExceptions

Gets or sets a Boolean value that specifies whether your application receives exceptions that occur when an HttpListener sends the response to the client.

IsListening

Gets a value that indicates whether HttpListener has been started.

IsSupported

Gets a value that indicates whether HttpListener can be used with the current operating system.

Prefixes

Gets the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) prefixes handled by this HttpListener object.

Realm

Gets or sets the realm, or resource partition, associated with this HttpListener object.

TimeoutManager

The timeout manager for this HttpListener instance.

UnsafeConnectionNtlmAuthentication

Gets or sets a Boolean value that controls whether, when NTLM is used, additional requests using the same Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection are required to authenticate.

Methods

Abort()

Shuts down the HttpListener object immediately, discarding all currently queued requests.

BeginGetContext(AsyncCallback, Object)

Begins asynchronously retrieving an incoming request.

Close()

Shuts down the HttpListener.

EndGetContext(IAsyncResult)

Completes an asynchronous operation to retrieve an incoming client request.

Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetContext()

Waits for an incoming request and returns when one is received.

GetContextAsync()

Waits for an incoming request as an asynchronous operation.

GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

(Inherited from Object)
Start()

Allows this instance to receive incoming requests.

Stop()

Causes this instance to stop receiving new incoming requests and terminates processing of all ongoing requests.

ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)

Explicit Interface Implementations

IDisposable.Dispose()

Releases the resources held by this HttpListener object.
