Como posso definir cabeçalhos com Silverlight GET HttpWebRequest?

Question

Fazendo um pedido para um serviço RESTful em Silverlight com HttpWebRequest funciona bem, desde que eu não adicionar cabeçalhos para o pedido.

Assim que eu adicionar um cabeçalho usando código como este

var webReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(new Uri(_RemoteAddress, "GetProviderMetadata"));
webReq.Method = HttpMethodType.Get;
webReq.Headers["SomeToken"] = "someTokenValue";

Eu recebo a exceção colado na parte inferior desta questão, logo que EndGetResponse() é chamado. Alguém sabe por que isso é? Adicionar cabeçalhos para obter solicitações parece funcionar bem em .NET normal, então eu estou supondo que é algum tipo de limitação Silverlight, mas não consigo encontrar qualquer documentação que esclarece.

Answer 1

Silverlight só suporta configuração cabeçalhos utilizando o método POST não o método GET. Isto é devido a uma limitação na forma como a pilha TCP / IP é implementado em Silverlight. Ele usa as APIs de extensão do navegador em vez de ir diretamente contra APIs do sistema operacional hospedeiro.

"HTTP Cliente" manipulação antes de chamá-lo de iniciar o seu WebRequest.

Como esta:

bool httpResult = WebRequest.RegisterPrefix("http://", WebRequestCreator.ClientHttp);
bool httpsResult = WebRequest.RegisterPrefix("https://", WebRequestCreator.ClientHttp);
