Gets or sets a value that indicates whether to buffer the data sent to the Internet resource.
(in System.dll)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Property AllowWriteStreamBuffering As Boolean
Dim instance As HttpWebRequest
Dim value As Boolean
value = instance.AllowWriteStreamBuffering
instance.AllowWriteStreamBuffering = value
public bool AllowWriteStreamBuffering { get; set; }
public:
property bool AllowWriteStreamBuffering {
bool get ();
void set (bool value);
}
public function get AllowWriteStreamBuffering () : boolean
public function set AllowWriteStreamBuffering (value : boolean)
Property Value
Type:
System..::.Boolean
true to enable buffering of the data sent to the Internet resource; false to disable buffering. The default is true.
When AllowWriteStreamBuffering is true, the data is buffered in memory so it is ready to be resent in the event of redirections or authentication requests.
Notes to Implementers: Setting AllowWriteStreamBuffering to true might cause performance problems when uploading large datasets because the data buffer could use all available memory.
Windows Mobile for Pocket PC, Windows Mobile for Smartphone, Windows CE Platform Note: For performance considerations, the default value for this property is false; however, it is important to note that if verbs require entity data (such as POST), redirection and authentication might not occur. To implement the full .NET Framework behavior for HTTP requests, set AllowWriteStreamBuffering to true.
The following code example uses the AllowWriteStreamBuffering property to disable data buffering.
