Property Value

The value of the Transfer-encoding HTTP header. The default value is null.

Exception Condition

ArgumentException

TransferEncoding is set to the value "Chunked".

Before you can set the TransferEncoding property, you must first set the SendChunked property to true. Clearing TransferEncoding by setting it to null has no effect on the value of SendChunked.

Values assigned to the TransferEncoding property replace any existing contents.
