Ends an asynchronous request for a Stream object to use to write data and outputs the TransportContext associated with the stream.
public:
System::IO::Stream ^ EndGetRequestStream(IAsyncResult ^ asyncResult, [Runtime::InteropServices::Out] System::Net::TransportContext ^ % context);
public System.IO.Stream EndGetRequestStream (IAsyncResult asyncResult, out System.Net.TransportContext? context);
public System.IO.Stream EndGetRequestStream (IAsyncResult asyncResult, out System.Net.TransportContext context);
override this.EndGetRequestStream : IAsyncResult * TransportContext -> System.IO.Stream
Public Function EndGetRequestStream (asyncResult As IAsyncResult, ByRef context As TransportContext) As Stream
Parameters
- asyncResult
- IAsyncResult
The pending request for a stream.
- context
- TransportContext
The TransportContext for the Stream.
Returns
A Stream to use to write request data.
Exceptions
asyncResult
was not returned by the current instance from a call to BeginGetRequestStream(AsyncCallback, Object).
asyncResult
is null
.
This method was called previously using asyncResult
.
The request did not complete, and no stream is available.
Remarks
Caution
WebRequest
, HttpWebRequest
, ServicePoint
, and WebClient
are obsolete, and you shouldn't use them for new development. Use HttpClient instead.
The EndGetRequestStream method completes an asynchronous request for a stream that was started by the BeginGetRequestStream method and outputs the TransportContext associated with the stream. After the Stream object has been returned, you can send data with the HttpWebRequest by using the Stream.Write method.
Some applications that use integrated Windows authentication with extended protection may need to be able to query the transport layer used by HttpWebRequest in order to retrieve the channel binding token (CBT) from the underlying TLS channel. The GetRequestStream method provides access to this information for HTTP methods which have a request body (POST
and PUT
requests). This is only needed if the application is implementing its own authentication and needs access to the CBT.
Note
- If you need to set the value of the ContentLength property before writing data to the stream.
- You must call the Stream.Close method to close the stream and release the connection for reuse. Failure to close the stream causes your application to run out of connections.
- This member outputs trace information when you enable network tracing in your application. For more information, see Network Tracing in the .NET Framework.
