HttpWebRequest myHttpWebRequest=(HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://www.microsoft.com"); // Use the existing 'ProtocolVersion' , and display it onto the console. Console.WriteLine("\nThe 'ProtocolVersion' of the protocol used is {0}",myHttpWebRequest.ProtocolVersion); // Set the 'ProtocolVersion' property of the 'HttpWebRequest' to 'Version1.0' . myHttpWebRequest.ProtocolVersion=HttpVersion.Version10; // Assign the response object of 'HttpWebRequest' to a 'HttpWebResponse' variable. HttpWebResponse myHttpWebResponse=(HttpWebResponse)myHttpWebRequest.GetResponse(); Console.WriteLine("\nThe 'ProtocolVersion' of the protocol changed to {0}",myHttpWebRequest.ProtocolVersion); Console.WriteLine("\nThe protocol version of the response object is {0}",myHttpWebResponse.ProtocolVersion);
// Create a new 'HttpWebRequest' Object to the mentioned URL.
HttpWebRequest* myHttpWebRequest =
dynamic_cast<HttpWebRequest*>(WebRequest::Create(S"http://www.microsoft.com"));
// Use the existing 'ProtocolVersion' , and display it onto the console.
Console::WriteLine(S"\nThe 'ProtocolVersion' of the protocol used is {0}",
myHttpWebRequest->ProtocolVersion);
