HttpHelperResponse

Warning

(This API is obsolete and has been removed. Please use System.Net.Http.HttpResponseMessage or Windows.Web.Http.HttpResponseMessage directly)

HttpHelperResponse (/dotnet/api/microsoft.toolkit.uwp.httphelperresponse) represents an HTTP response message including headers.

Sample

using (HttpHelperResponse response = await HttpHelper.Instance.SendRequestAsync(request))
{
    await response.GetTextResultAsync();
}

Using response = Await HttpHelper.Instance.SendRequestAsync(request)
    Await response.GetTextResultAsync()
End Using

Constructors

The HttpHelperResponse class has these constructors.

Constructor	Description
HttpHelperResponse(HttpResponseMessage)	Initializes an instance of the HttpHelperRequest class with supplied HttpHelperResponse.

Properties

Property	Type	Description
Content	IHttpContent	Gets the HTTP content return from the server
Headers	HttpResponseHeaderCollection	Gets the collection of HTTP response headers associated with the response that were sent by the server
StatusCode	HttpStatusCode	Gets the status code of the response
Success	bool	Gets a value that indicates whether the response was successful

Methods

Methods	Return Type	Description
Dispose()	void	Performs tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources
GetStreamResultAsync()	Task<IInputStream>	Reads the Content as stream and returns it to the caller
GetTextResultAsync()	Task<string>	Serialize the HTTP content to a String as an asynchronous operation
ToString()	string	Returns a string that represents the current HttpHelperResponse object

Remarks

The HttpHelperResponse class contains headers and potentially data. An app receives an instance of HttpHelperResponse when it creates an instance of HttpHelperRequest and passes it to the HttpHelper.SendRequestAsync method.

Example

using (var request = new HttpHelperRequest(new Uri(twitterUrl), HttpMethod.Post))
{
    using (var response = await HttpHelper.Instance.SendRequestAsync(request))
    {
        return await response.GetTextResultAsync();
    }
}

Using request = New HttpHelperRequest(New Uri(twitterUrl), HttpMethod.Post)
    Using response = Await HttpHelper.Instance.SendRequestAsync(request)
        Return Await response.GetTextResultAsync()
    End Using
End Using
