Web Request Compression

Arthur Zeyda

8/5/2003 1:47:00 PM

I need to compress the request for a webservice. I have
seen many examples of how to compress/decompress the
response. Most of the decompression examples seemed to
focus on overriding the GetWebResponse method in the
proxy. Is it possible to do something similar to
compress the request.

Thank You

If we talk about of WebRequest object, so my answer why not?
You can write data to request output stream on the client side
using e.g. GZipOutputStream from ZipSharpLib library. But also
you have to set Transfer-Encoding header equal to gzip. This will
work only if you will use HTTP transport. But in this case, if yours
server will recognize and support gzip archiving, you will success.

Whenever I implement that I get an error that says the
method I am trying to invoke in the webservice does not
exist. Is it just that I am not decompressing it on the
other side or is it not even getting to the webservice?
