.NET Framework Class Library
DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs Class

Updated: November 2007

Provides data for the DownloadStringCompleted event.

Namespace:  System.Net
Assembly:  System (in System.dll)

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Class DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs _
    Inherits AsyncCompletedEventArgs
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs
C#
public class DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs : AsyncCompletedEventArgs
Visual C++
public ref class DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs : public AsyncCompletedEventArgs
J#
public class DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs extends AsyncCompletedEventArgs
JScript
public class DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs extends AsyncCompletedEventArgs

Instances of this class are passed to the DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler.

The following code example demonstrates downloading a string asynchronously.

Visual Basic
        '  Sample call : DownloadStringInBackground2 ("http:' www.contoso.com/GameScores.html")
        Public Shared Sub DownloadStringInBackground2(ByVal address As String)

            Dim client As WebClient = New WebClient()

            '  Specify that the DownloadStringCallback2 method gets called
            '  when the download completes.
            AddHandler client.DownloadStringCompleted, AddressOf DownloadStringCallback2
                        Dim uri as Uri = New Uri(address)
            client.DownloadStringAsync(uri)
        End Sub


C#
// Sample call : DownloadStringInBackground2 ("http://www.contoso.com/GameScores.html");
public static void DownloadStringInBackground2 (string address)
{
    WebClient client = new WebClient ();
    Uri uri = new Uri(address);

    // Specify that the DownloadStringCallback2 method gets called
    // when the download completes.
    client.DownloadStringCompleted += new DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler (DownloadStringCallback2);
    client.DownloadStringAsync (uri);
}


Visual C++
// Sample call : DownloadStringInBackground2 ("http://www.contoso.com/GameScores.html");
void DownloadStringInBackground2( String^ address )
{
   WebClient^ client = gcnew WebClient;
   Uri ^uri = gcnew Uri(address);

   // Specify that the DownloadStringCallback2 method gets called
   // when the download completes.
   client->DownloadStringCompleted += gcnew DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler( DownloadStringCallback2 );
   client->DownloadStringAsync( uri );
}



J#
// Sample call : DownloadStringInBackground2 (
// "http://www.contoso.com/GameScores.html");
public static void DownloadStringInBackground2(String address)
{
    WebClient client = new WebClient();
    Uri uri = new Uri(address);

    // Specify that the DownloadStringCallback2 method gets called
    // when the download completes.
    client.add_DownloadStringCompleted(
        new DownloadStringCompletedEventHandler(DownloadStringCallback2));
    client.DownloadStringAsync(uri);
} //DownloadStringInBackground2

The following method is called when the download completes.

Visual Basic
Private Shared Sub DownloadStringCallback2(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs)

    '  If the request was not canceled and did not throw
    '  an exception, display the resource.
    If e.Cancelled = False AndAlso e.Error Is Nothing Then

        Dim textString As String = CStr(e.Result)
        Console.WriteLine(textString)
    End If
End Sub


C#
private static void DownloadStringCallback2 (Object sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    // If the request was not canceled and did not throw
    // an exception, display the resource.
    if (!e.Cancelled && e.Error == null)
    {
        string textString = (string)e.Result;

        Console.WriteLine (textString);
    }
}


Visual C++
void DownloadStringCallback2( Object^ /*sender*/, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs^ e )
{

   // If the request was not canceled and did not throw
   // an exception, display the resource.
   if (  !e->Cancelled && e->Error == nullptr )
   {
      String^ textString = dynamic_cast<String^>(e->Result);
      Console::WriteLine( textString );
   }
}



J#
private static void DownloadStringCallback2(Object sender,
    DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    // If the request was not canceled and did not throw
    // an exception, display the resource.
    if (!(e.get_Cancelled()) && e.get_Error() == null) {
        String textString = (System.String)(e.get_Result());
        Console.WriteLine(textString);
    }
} //DownloadStringCallback2
