System.Net.HttpWebRequest.AddRange Method

Parameters

A int indicating the starting byte position of the entity-body data to be returned. [Edit]

A int indicating the last byte. [Edit]

InvalidOperationExceptionThe range header could not be added. [Edit]

Remarks

This method is equivalent to HttpWebRequest.AddRange(int, int)("bytes", from, to).

Note:

The HTTP Range header specifies either a single range of bytes or a set of byte ranges in an entity-body to be returned. If the server accessed by the current instance supports the use of this header, this allows for the partial retrieval of the entity due to, for example, the entity being particularly large or there having been a failed transfer of data.

For more information on the HTTP Range header, see Section 14.35 of RFC 2616.
