I'm trying to read the response stream from an HttpWebResponse object. I know the length of the stream (_response.ContentLength) however I keep getting the following exception:
- -Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. -Parameter name: size
- -While debugging, I noticed that at the time of the error, the values were as such:
- -length = 15032 //the length of the stream as defined by _response.ContentLength
- -bytesToRead = 7680 //the number of bytes in the stream that still need to be read
- -bytesRead = 7680 //the number of bytes that have been read (offset)
- -body.length = 15032 //the size of the byte[] the stream is being copied to
- -The peculiar thing is that the bytesToRead and bytesRead variables are ALWAYS 7680, regardless of the size of the stream (contained in the length variable). Any ideas?
- -Code:
- -int length = (int)_response.ContentLength;
-
-byte[] body = null;
-
-if (length > 0)
-{
- int bytesToRead = length;
- int bytesRead = 0;
-
- try
- {
- body = new byte[length];
-
- using (Stream stream = _response.GetResponseStream())
- {
- while (bytesToRead > 0)
- {
- // Read may return anything from 0 to length.
- int n = stream.Read(body, bytesRead, length);
-
- // The end of the file is reached.
- if (n == 0)
- break;
-
- bytesRead += n;
- bytesToRead -= n;
- }
- stream.Close();
- }
- }
- catch (Exception exception)
- {
- throw;
- }
-}
-else
-{
- body = new byte[0];
-}
-
-_responseBody = body;
