Returns

A System.IO.Stream containing the body of the response.

Exceptions

Type	Reason
ObjectDisposedException	The current instance has been disposed.

Remarks

The HttpWebResponse.GetResponseStream method returns the data stream from the requested Internet resource.

Note:

Call either the System.IO.Stream.Close or HttpWebResponse.Close method to close the stream and release the connection for reuse. It is not necessary to call both System.IO.Stream.Close and HttpWebResponse.Close , but doing so does not cause an error. Failure to close the stream might cause an application to run out of connections.

This method overrides WebResponse.GetResponseStream .
