HttpListenerRequest.KeepAlive Property

Definition

member this.KeepAlive : bool
Public ReadOnly Property KeepAlive As Boolean

Property Value

Examples

The following code example demonstrates using this property.

public static void ShowRequestProperties2 (HttpListenerRequest request)
{
    Console.WriteLine("KeepAlive: {0}", request.KeepAlive);
    Console.WriteLine("Local end point: {0}", request.LocalEndPoint.ToString());
    Console.WriteLine("Remote end point: {0}", request.RemoteEndPoint.ToString());
    Console.WriteLine("Is local? {0}", request.IsLocal);
    Console.WriteLine("HTTP method: {0}", request.HttpMethod);
    Console.WriteLine("Protocol version: {0}", request.ProtocolVersion);
    Console.WriteLine("Is authenticated: {0}", request.IsAuthenticated);
    Console.WriteLine("Is secure: {0}", request.IsSecureConnection);
}
Public Shared Sub ShowRequestProperties2(ByVal request As HttpListenerRequest)
    Console.WriteLine("KeepAlive: {0}", request.KeepAlive)
    Console.WriteLine("Local end point: {0}", request.LocalEndPoint.ToString())
    Console.WriteLine("Remote end point: {0}", request.RemoteEndPoint.ToString())
    Console.WriteLine("Is local? {0}", request.IsLocal)
    Console.WriteLine("HTTP method: {0}", request.HttpMethod)
    Console.WriteLine("Protocol version: {0}", request.ProtocolVersion)
    Console.WriteLine("Is authenticated: {0}", request.IsAuthenticated)
    Console.WriteLine("Is secure: {0}", request.IsSecureConnection)
End Sub

Remarks

If an HTTP client and server expect to exchange data multiple times in a short time period, a persistent connection speeds up their communications by allowing them to avoid the overhead required to open and close a TCP connection for each message. For clients using HTTP/1.1, the default value for this property is true.
