Gets or sets the name of the connection group for the request.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
Public Overrides Property ConnectionGroupName As String
public override string ConnectionGroupName { get; set; }
public: virtual property String^ ConnectionGroupName { String^ get () override; void set (String^ value) override; }
abstract ConnectionGroupName : string with get, set override ConnectionGroupName : string with get, set
Property Value
Type: System.StringThe name of the connection group for this request. The default value is null.
The ConnectionGroupName property enables you to associate a request with a connection group. This is useful when your application makes requests to one server for different users, such as a Web site that retrieves customer information from a database server.
Notes to Implementers
Each connection group creates additional connections for a server. This may result in exceeding the number of connections set by the ServicePoint.ConnectionLimit property for that server.
The following code example show how to use user information to form a connection group, assuming that the variables username, password, and domain are set by the application before this code is called.
' Create a secure group name. Dim Sha1 As New SHA1Managed() Dim updHash As [Byte]() = Sha1.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(("username" + "password" + "domain"))) Dim secureGroupName As [String] = Encoding.Default.GetString(updHash) ' Create a request for a specific URL. Dim myWebRequest As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create("http://www.contoso.com") ' Set the authentication credentials for the request. myWebRequest.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domain") myWebRequest.ConnectionGroupName = secureGroupName ' Get the response. Dim myWebResponse As WebResponse = myWebRequest.GetResponse() ' Insert the code that uses myWebResponse here. ' Close the response. myWebResponse.Close()
// Create a secure group name. SHA1Managed Sha1 = new SHA1Managed(); Byte[] updHash = Sha1.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("username" + "password" + "domain")); String secureGroupName = Encoding.Default.GetString(updHash); // Create a request for a specific URL. WebRequest myWebRequest=WebRequest.Create("http://www.contoso.com"); // Set the authentication credentials for the request. myWebRequest.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domain"); myWebRequest.ConnectionGroupName = secureGroupName; // Get the response. WebResponse myWebResponse=myWebRequest.GetResponse(); // Insert the code that uses myWebResponse here. // Close the response. myWebResponse.Close();
// Create a secure group name. SHA1Managed^ Sha1 = gcnew SHA1Managed; array<Byte>^updHash = Sha1->ComputeHash( Encoding::UTF8->GetBytes( "usernamepassworddomain" ) ); String^ secureGroupName = Encoding::Default->GetString( updHash ); // Create a request for a specific URL. WebRequest^ myWebRequest = WebRequest::Create( "http://www.contoso.com" ); // Set the authentication credentials for the request. myWebRequest->Credentials = gcnew NetworkCredential( "username","password","domain" ); myWebRequest->ConnectionGroupName = secureGroupName; // Get the response.
