Examples

The following code example sets the value of this property.

using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.IO;
using System.Threading;

namespace Examples.System.Net
{
    public class ServicePointExample
    {
        // Pass in the name of the Web page to retrieve.
        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string page;
            if (args == null || args.Length == 0 || args[0].Length == 0)
            {
                page = "http://www.contoso.com/default.html";
            }
            else
            {
                page = args[0];
            }
            // Create the request.
            HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(page);
            // Get the service point that handles the request's socket connection.
            ServicePoint point = request.ServicePoint;
            // Set the receive buffer size on the underlying socket.
            point.ReceiveBufferSize = 2048;
            // Set the connection lease timeout to infinite.
            point.ConnectionLeaseTimeout = Timeout.Infinite;
            // Send the request.
            HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
            Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
            StreamReader s = new StreamReader(responseStream);
            // Display the response.
            Console.WriteLine(s.ReadToEnd());
            s.Close();
            responseStream.Close();
            response.Close();
        }
    }
}

Remarks

Waarschuwing

WebRequest, HttpWebRequest, ServicePoint, and WebClient are obsolete, and you shouldn't use them for new development. Use HttpClient instead.
