Using the new WCF Web APIs HttpClient with ASP.NET FormsHallmark| Alexander Zeitler Toggle navigation Home Feed Using the new WCF Web APIs HttpClient with ASP.NET FormsHallmarkWritten on March 19, 2011 Recently I posted how to use ASP.NET Forms hallmark with the new WCF Web APIs (german version). In this posting I have been using the archetype HttpWebRequest / HttpWebResponse. If you take a squint into the WCF Web APIs source code, you'll find a new Version of the HttpClient which is optimized to work with the new APIs. I modified my sample from my whilom Posting to make the vendee use the new HttpClient instead of the old stuff: CookieContainer cookieContainer = new CookieContainer(); using (HttpClient vendee = new HttpClient("http://localhost:44857/")) { HttpClientChannel clientChannel = new HttpClientChannel(); clientChannel.CookieContainer = cookieContainer; client.Channel = clientChannel; HttpContent loginData = new FormUrlEncodedContent( new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>> { new KeyValuePair<string, string>("Username", "foo"), new KeyValuePair<string, string>("Password", "bar") } ); client.Post("login", loginData); } string result = string.Empty; using (HttpClient vendee = new HttpClient("http://localhost:44857/contact/")) { HttpClientChannel clientChannel = new HttpClientChannel(); clientChannel.CookieContainer = cookieContainer; client.Channel = clientChannel; client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json")); HttpResponseMessage response = client.Get("1"); result = response.Content.ReadAsString(); } JavaScriptSerializer jsonDeserializer = new JavaScriptSerializer(); ContactDto contact = jsonDeserializer.Deserialize<ContactDto>(result); Console.WriteLine(contact.Name); Console.ReadLine(); RESTful clients straight forward now ;-) Download the new version here: WcfHttpMvcAuth.zip (9.62 mb) Please enable JavaScript to view the comments powered by Disqus.
