How to use httpwebrequest to pull image from website to local file

by

nice image 😀

try using the following code:

you needed to use a BinaryReader, ’cause an image file is binary data and thus not encoded in UTF or ASCII

edit: using’ified

HttpWebRequest lxRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(
"http://www.productimageswebsite.com/images/stock_jpgs/34891.jpg");

// returned values are returned as a stream, then read into a string
String lsResponse = string.Empty;
using (HttpWebResponse lxResponse = (HttpWebResponse)lxRequest.GetResponse()){
   using (BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(lxResponse.GetResponseStream())) {
      Byte[] lnByte = reader.ReadBytes(1 * 1024 * 1024 * 10);
      using (FileStream lxFS = new FileStream("34891.jpg", FileMode.Create)) {
          lxFS.Write(lnByte, 0, lnByte.Length);
      }
   }
}
MessageBox.Show("done");
