[Mono-devel-list] HttpWebRequest problem

[Namit Dhameja]

Hi Gonzalo,
    I am porting the code from Windows (MS .NET) to Linux (Mono). And I did
not have the same experience with "HttpWebRequest". That is, I did not have
to close the connection on MS .NET, "Flush()" seemed to do the trick.
    Actually closing the connection seems an acceptable workaround. I just
wanted to bring to your notice that there is a difference in behaviour.

-Best Regards,
Namit.
