System.Object
  System.MarshalByRefObject
    System.Net.WebResponse
      System.Net.FileWebResponse

Namespace:  System.Net
Assembly:  System (in System.dll)
[SerializableAttribute]
public class FileWebResponse : WebResponse, 
	ISerializable

The FileWebResponse type exposes the following members.

  Name Description
Protected method FileWebResponse Obsolete. Initializes a new instance of the FileWebResponse class from the specified instances of the SerializationInfo and StreamingContext classes.
Top
  Name Description
Public property ContentLength Gets the length of the content in the file system resource. (Overrides WebResponse.ContentLength.)
Public property ContentType Gets the content type of the file system resource. (Overrides WebResponse.ContentType.)
Public property Headers Gets a collection of header name/value pairs associated with the response. (Overrides WebResponse.Headers.)
Public property IsFromCache Gets a Boolean value that indicates whether this response was obtained from the cache. (Inherited from WebResponse.)
Public property IsMutuallyAuthenticated Gets a Boolean value that indicates whether mutual authentication occurred. (Inherited from WebResponse.)
Public property ResponseUri Gets the URI of the file system resource that provided the response. (Overrides WebResponse.ResponseUri.)
Top
  Name Description
Public method Close Closes the response stream. (Overrides WebResponse.Close().)
Public method CreateObjRef Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetLifetimeService Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected method GetObjectData Populates a SerializationInfo with the data needed to serialize the target object. (Overrides WebResponse.GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext).)
Public method GetResponseStream Returns the data stream from the file system resource. (Overrides WebResponse.GetResponseStream().)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method InitializeLifetimeService Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone() Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone(Boolean) Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

  Name Description
Explicit interface implemetation Private method IDisposable.Dispose Infrastructure. When overridden in a derived class, releases all resources used by the WebResponse. (Inherited from WebResponse.)
Explicit interface implemetation Private method ISerializable.GetObjectData Infrastructure. Populates a SerializationInfo instance with the data needed to serialize the FileWebResponse.

The FileWebResponse class implements the WebResponse abstract base class to return file system resources for the FileWebRequest class.

Client applications do not create FileWebResponse instances directly; instead, they are created by calling the GetResponse method on a FileWebRequest instance.

The GetResponseStream method returns a Stream instance that provides read-only access to a file system resource.

The FileWebResponse class relies on the File class for error handling and code access security.
