HttpClientRequest

Overview

The HttpClientRequest class represents an HTTP request sent from the client to the server. This class is descended from the HttpOutgoingRequestResponse class and adds some client-side specific properties and methods.

The HttpClientRequest class is used internally by the IpHttpClientChannel and IpSuperHttpClientChannel Remoting SDK client channels.

CloseStream    (declared in HttpOutgoingRequestResponse)

When ContentSource is set to ContentStream (and a ContentStream is assigned), this property determines if the stream should be closed automatically after sending it to the connection (true) or not (false).

 

property CloseStream: Boolean read write;

 

Boolean CloseStream { get; set; }
