Remarks

The contents of an HTTP message corresponds to the entity body and headers associated with the content defined in RFC 2616. Several classes and an interface in the Windows.Web.Http namespace can be used for HTTP content, including:

  • IHttpContent - A base interface for developers to create their own content objects. It represents an HTTP entity body and content headers. This interface has methods that get and set the actual content data. It also provides properties that get and set content related headers.
  • HttpBufferContent - HTTP content that uses a buffer.
  • HttpFormUrlEncodedContent - HTTP content that uses name/value tuples encoded with the application/x-www-form-urlencoded MIME type.
  • HttpMultipartContent - HTTP content that uses multipart/* MIME type.
  • HttpMultipartFormDataContent - HTTP content that uses the encoded multipart/form-data MIME type.
  • HttpStreamContent - HTTP content that uses a stream. This content type is used by the HTTP methods to receive data and HTTP methods to upload data.
  • HttpStringContent - HTTP content that uses a string.

Properties

Headers

Get a collection of content headers set on the IHttpContent.

Methods

BufferAllAsync()

Dispose()

Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.
ReadAsBufferAsync()

ReadAsInputStreamAsync()

Serialize the HTTP content and return an input stream that represents the content as an asynchronous operation.
ReadAsStringAsync()

Serialize the HTTP content to a String as an asynchronous operation.
TryComputeLength(UInt64)

Determines whether the HTTP content has a valid length in bytes.
WriteToStreamAsync(IOutputStream)
