Examples
The following example shows how to create a WebRequest instance and return the response.
#using <System.dll>
using namespace System;
using namespace System::IO;
using namespace System::Net;
using namespace System::Text;
int main()
{
// Create a request for the URL.
WebRequest^ request = WebRequest::Create( "http://www.contoso.com/default.html" );
// If required by the server, set the credentials.
request->Credentials = CredentialCache::DefaultCredentials;
// Get the response.
HttpWebResponse^ response = dynamic_cast<HttpWebResponse^>(request->GetResponse());
// Display the status.
Console::WriteLine( response->StatusDescription );
// Get the stream containing content returned by the server.
Stream^ dataStream = response->GetResponseStream();
// Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
StreamReader^ reader = gcnew StreamReader( dataStream );
// Read the content.
String^ responseFromServer = reader->ReadToEnd();
// Display the content.
Console::WriteLine( responseFromServer );
// Cleanup the streams and the response.
reader->Close();
dataStream->Close();
response->Close();
}

// If required by the server, set the credentials.

// Get the response.
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse ();
// Display the status.
Console.WriteLine (response.StatusDescription);
// Get the stream containing content returned by the server.

Remarks
Important
Don't use WebRequest
or its derived classes for new development. Instead, use the System.Net.Http.HttpClient class.
WebRequest is the abstract
base class for .NET's request/response model for accessing data from the Internet. An application that uses the request/response model can request data from the Internet in a protocol-agnostic manner, in which the application works with instances of the WebRequest class while protocol-specific descendant classes carry out the details of the request.
Requests are sent from an application to a particular URI, such as a Web page on a server. The URI determines the proper descendant class to create from a list of WebRequest descendants registered for the application. WebRequest descendants are typically registered to handle a specific protocol, such as HTTP or FTP, but can be registered to handle a request to a specific server or path on a server.
The WebRequest class throws a WebException when errors occur while accessing an Internet resource. The Status property is one of the WebExceptionStatus values that indicates the source of the error. When Status is WebExceptionStatus.ProtocolError, the Response property contains the WebResponse received from the Internet resource.
Because the WebRequest class is an abstract
class, the actual behavior of WebRequest instances at run time is determined by the descendant class returned by Create method. For more information about default values and exceptions, see the documentation for the descendant classes, such as HttpWebRequest and FileWebRequest.
Note
Use the Create method to initialize new WebRequest instances. Do not use the WebRequest constructor.
Note
If the application that creates the WebRequest object runs with the credentials of a Normal user, the application will not be able to access certificates installed in the local machine store unless permission has been explicitly given to the user to do so.
Notes to Implementers
When you inherit from WebRequest, you must override the following members: Method, RequestUri, Headers, ContentLength, ContentType, Credentials, PreAuthenticate, GetRequestStream(), BeginGetRequestStream(AsyncCallback, Object), EndGetRequestStream(IAsyncResult), GetResponse(), BeginGetResponse(AsyncCallback, Object), and EndGetResponse(IAsyncResult). In addition, you must provide an implementation of the IWebRequestCreate interface, which defines the Create(Uri) method used when you call Create(Uri). You must register the class that implements the IWebRequestCreate interface, using the RegisterPrefix(String, IWebRequestCreate) method or the configuration file.
