Examples

The following code example checks the HaveResponse property to determine if a response has been received from an Internet resource.

// Create a new 'HttpWebRequest' Object.
HttpWebRequest myHttpWebRequest=(HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://www.contoso.com");
HttpWebResponse myHttpWebResponse;
// Display the 'HaveResponse' property of the 'HttpWebRequest' object to the console.
Console.WriteLine("\nThe value of 'HaveResponse' property before a response object is obtained :{0}",myHttpWebRequest.HaveResponse);
// Assign the response object of 'HttpWebRequest' to a 'HttpWebResponse' variable.
myHttpWebResponse=(HttpWebResponse)myHttpWebRequest.GetResponse();
if (myHttpWebRequest.HaveResponse)
{
    Stream streamResponse=myHttpWebResponse.GetResponseStream();
    StreamReader streamRead = new StreamReader( streamResponse );
    Char[] readBuff = new Char[256];
    int count = streamRead.Read( readBuff, 0, 256 );
    Console.WriteLine("\nThe contents of Html Page are :  \n");	
    while (count > 0)
    {
        String outputData = new String(readBuff, 0, count);
        Console.Write(outputData);
        count = streamRead.Read(readBuff, 0, 256);
    }
    // Close the Stream object.
    streamResponse.Close();
    streamRead.Close();
    // Release the HttpWebResponse Resource.
    myHttpWebResponse.Close();
    Console.WriteLine("\nPress 'Enter' key to continue..........");
    Console.Read();
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine("\nThe response is not received ");
}
