Thread Safety

All public static members of this type are safe for multithreaded operations. No instance members are guaranteed to be thread safe.

Remarks

A System.Net.ProtocolViolationException is thrown by types derived from System.Net.WebRequest and System.Net.WebResponse to indicate that an error has occurred as defined by the rules of the underlying protocol. For example, the System.Net.HttpWebRequest type throws a System.Net.ProtocolViolationException when an application attempts to send content without specifying the content length.
