Cannot send a content-body with this verb-type

Question

I just got this exception  ProtocolViolationException  in my  NET 2 0 app  running on windows mobile 6 standard emulator    What confuses me is that as far as i know  I have not added any content body  unless I ve inadvertently done it somehow   My code is below  very simple    Is there anything else i need to do to convince  NET that this is just a http GET   Thanks  brian    run get and grab response WebRequest request   WebRequest Create get AbsoluteUri   args   request Method    GET   Stream stream   request GetRequestStream                  lt   explodes here XmlTextReader reader   new XmlTextReader stream

Don t get the request stream  quite simply  GET requests don t usually have bodies  even though it s not technically prohibited by HTTP  and WebRequest doesn t support it - but that s what calling GetRequestStream is for  providing body data for the request   Given that you re trying to read from the stream  it looks to me like you actually want to get the response and read the response stream from that   WebRequest request   WebRequest Create get AbsoluteUri   args   request Method    GET   using  WebResponse response   request GetResponse          using  Stream stream   response GetResponseStream                  XmlTextReader reader   new XmlTextReader stream

Because you didn t specify the Header    I ve added an extended example   var request    HttpWebRequest WebRequest Create strServer   strURL Split   amp    1  ToString       Header ref request  p Method    And the method Header   private void Header ref HttpWebRequest p request  string p Method        p request ContentType    application x-www-form-urlencoded       p request Method   p Method      p request UserAgent    Mozilla 4 0  compatible  MSIE 6 0  Windows CE        p request Host   strServer Split      2  ToString        p request Accept              if  String IsNullOrEmpty strURLReferer                 p request Referer   strServer            else               p request Referer   strURLReferer            p request Headers Add  Accept-Language    en-us r n        p request Headers Add  UA-CPU    x86  r n        p request Headers Add  Cache-Control    no-cache r n        p request KeepAlive   true
