apns and asp.net - asp.net

I'm building and iPhone application the use push notification, all is ok. but now i'm going to build the server side with ASP.net. can any one help mee... coz i tired to get a solution using Google but unfortunately i didn't find any thing.
....
note: i tried this link http://arashnorouzi.wordpress.com/2011/03/31/sending-apple-push-notifications-in-asp-net-part-1/
but the post not completed yet

After days of work. I chose to work with Urbanairship which provides a full push server:
Dim request As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create("https://go.urbanairship.com/api/push/broadcast/")
Dim postData As String = "{""aps"": {""badge"": ""+1"", ""alert"": ""Estez Mohamad lamaa!"",""sound"": ""default""}}"
request.Credentials = New NetworkCredential("uorecode", "uorkey")
request.Method = "POST"
Dim byteArray As Byte() = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postData)
request.ContentType = "application/json"
request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length
Dim dataStream As Stream = request.GetRequestStream()
dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length)
dataStream.Close()
Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream()
Dim reader As New StreamReader(dataStream)
Dim responseFromServer As String = reader.ReadToEnd()
Console.WriteLine(responseFromServer)
reader.Close()
dataStream.Close()
response.Close()

I saw part 4 is out with a useful sample code.
http://arashnorouzi.wordpress.com/2011/06/19/sending-apple-push-notifications-in-asp-net-and-c-%e2%80%93-part-4-apns-sharp-c-wrapper-class/

It is definitely finished.
I used it, and it works great.
However i'm not sure what's its licensing.

I use Prowl for notifications from ASP.NET:
public static void PushNotification(string header, string message)
{
new Thread(() =>
{
var prowlURL = string.Format("https://api.prowlapp.com/publicapi/add?apikey={YOURKEY}&application={0}&description={1}", header, message);
WebClient wc = null;
try
{
wc = new WebClient();
wc.UploadString(new Uri(prowlURL), "");
}
catch
{
}
finally
{
if (wc != null)
{
wc.Dispose();
wc = null;
}
}
}) { Name = "PushNotification", IsBackground = true }.Start();
}

how to call google acknowledge api from wcf service?

i need to add a call to google acknowledge endpoint into existing dotnet web service app.
this is the refence page https://developers.google.com/android-publisher/api-ref/rest/v3/purchases.products/acknowledge
i never worked on this app before, and i can not ask who developed it, He went away.
in the web.config are stored PlayStore ClientId and ClientSecret.
this is existing and working call to check a subscription:
internal PlayStoreSubscriptionPurchaseStatus verifySubscription(string packageName, string subscriptionId, string token, ref long timeMills)
{
Stopwatch watcher = new Stopwatch();
string accessToken = this.generateNewAccessToken(ref timeMills);
string verifySubscriptionAddress = _playStoreApisAddress + packageName + "/purchases/subscriptions/" + subscriptionId + "/tokens/" + token + "?access_token=" + accessToken;
PlayStoreSubscriptionPurchaseStatus playStoreResponse = null;
try
{
HttpWebRequest verifyRequest = WebRequest.Create(verifySubscriptionAddress) as HttpWebRequest;
verifyRequest.Method = "GET";
verifyRequest.ContentType = "application/json; charset=utf-8";
verifyRequest.Accept = "application/json; charset=utf-8";
watcher.Start();
using (HttpWebResponse verifyResponse = verifyRequest.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse)
{
watcher.Stop();
Stream responseStream = verifyResponse.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(responseStream);
string responseAsString = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
JavaScriptSerializer jss = new JavaScriptSerializer();
if (verifyResponse.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
playStoreResponse = jss.Deserialize<PlayStoreSubscriptionPurchaseStatus>(responseAsString);
else
{
playStoreResponse = new PlayStoreSubscriptionPurchaseStatus() { Success = false, ErrorMessage = responseAsString };
}
}
}
catch (WebException webEx)
{
using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(webEx.Response.GetResponseStream()))
{
string webExResponse = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
throw new Exception("Errore nella verifica subscription google play.\nErrore restituito dalle api google play:\n" + webExResponse);
}
}
finally
{
if (watcher.IsRunning)
watcher.Stop();
timeMills += watcher.ElapsedMilliseconds;
}
return playStoreResponse;
}
this code generates access_token:
private string generateNewAccessToken(ref long timeMills)
{
Stopwatch watcher = new Stopwatch();
string newAccessToken = string.Empty;
string postDta = string.Format("grant_type={0}&client_id={1}&client_secret={2}&refresh_token={3}",
"refresh_token", Uri.EscapeDataString(_clientId), Uri.EscapeDataString(_clientSecret), Uri.EscapeDataString(_refreshToken));
try
{
HttpWebRequest refreshAccessTokenRequest = WebRequest.Create(_refreshTokenAddress) as HttpWebRequest;
refreshAccessTokenRequest.Method = "POST";
refreshAccessTokenRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
//refreshAccessTokenRequest.ContentLength = new UTF8Encoding().GetBytes(postDta).Length;
refreshAccessTokenRequest.Accept = "application/json; charset=utf-8";
Stream refreshTokenRequestStream = refreshAccessTokenRequest.GetRequestStream();
StreamWriter streamWriter = new StreamWriter(refreshTokenRequestStream);
streamWriter.Write(postDta);
streamWriter.Close();
watcher.Start();
using (HttpWebResponse refreshAccessTokenResponse = refreshAccessTokenRequest.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse)
{
watcher.Stop();
Stream responseStream = refreshAccessTokenResponse.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(responseStream);
string responseAsString = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
JavaScriptSerializer jss = new JavaScriptSerializer();
RenewAccessTokenResponse renewAccessTokenResponse = jss.Deserialize<RenewAccessTokenResponse>(responseAsString);
newAccessToken = renewAccessTokenResponse.access_token;
}
}
catch (WebException webEx)
{
using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(webEx.Response.GetResponseStream()))
{
string webExResponse = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
throw new Exception(webExResponse);
}
}
finally
{
if (watcher.IsRunning)
watcher.Stop();
timeMills += watcher.ElapsedMilliseconds;
}
return newAccessToken;
}
what i want to know is if i can, using only httpwebrequest, make a call to acknlowelage api,
access token generate from generateNewAccessToken is good for this api?
if yes where do i have to store it? acknlowelage is POST while all existing calls in the project are GET. do i have store the access code in body or into some header?
there is somewhere a working sample?
thanks.

files not uploading to FTP Server [duplicate]

I try upload a file to an FTP-server with C#. The file is uploaded but with zero bytes.
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var dirPath = #"C:/Documents and Settings/sander.GD/Bureaublad/test/";
ftp ftpClient = new ftp("ftp://example.com/", "username", "password");
string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(dirPath,"*.*");
var uploadPath = "/httpdocs/album";
foreach (string file in files)
{
ftpClient.createDirectory("/test");
ftpClient.upload(uploadPath + "/" + Path.GetFileName(file), file);
}
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtnaam.Text))
{
MessageBox.Show("Gelieve uw naam in te geven !");
}
}
The existing answers are valid, but why re-invent the wheel and bother with lower level WebRequest types while WebClient already implements FTP uploading neatly:
using (var client = new WebClient())
{
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpUsername, ftpPassword);
client.UploadFile("ftp://host/path.zip", WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile, localFile);
}
Easiest way
The most trivial way to upload a file to an FTP server using .NET framework is using WebClient.UploadFile method:
WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");
var url = "ftp://ftp.example.com/remote/path/file.zip";
client.UploadFile(url, #"C:\local\path\file.zip");
Advanced options
If you need a greater control, that WebClient does not offer (like TLS/SSL encryption, ascii/text transfer mode, active mode, transfer resuming, progress monitoring, etc), use FtpWebRequest. Easy way is to just copy a FileStream to an FTP stream using Stream.CopyTo:
var url = "ftp://ftp.example.com/remote/path/file.zip";
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
using (Stream fileStream = File.OpenRead(#"C:\local\path\file.zip"))
using (Stream ftpStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
fileStream.CopyTo(ftpStream);
}
Progress monitoring
If you need to monitor an upload progress, you have to copy the contents by chunks yourself:
var url = "ftp://ftp.example.com/remote/path/file.zip";
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
using (Stream fileStream = File.OpenRead(#"C:\local\path\file.zip"))
using (Stream ftpStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
byte[] buffer = new byte[10240];
int read;
while ((read = fileStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
ftpStream.Write(buffer, 0, read);
Console.WriteLine("Uploaded {0} bytes", fileStream.Position);
}
}
For GUI progress (WinForms ProgressBar), see C# example at:
How can we show progress bar for upload with FtpWebRequest
Uploading folder
If you want to upload all files from a folder, see
Upload directory of files to FTP server using WebClient.
For a recursive upload, see
Recursive upload to FTP server in C#
.NET 5 Guide
async Task<FtpStatusCode> FtpFileUploadAsync(string ftpUrl, string userName, string password, string filePath)
{
FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(ftpUrl);
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(userName, password);
using (FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
using (Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
await fileStream.CopyToAsync(requestStream);
}
using (FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)await request.GetResponseAsync())
{
return response.StatusCode;
}
}
.NET Framework
public void UploadFtpFile(string folderName, string fileName)
{
FtpWebRequest request;
string folderName;
string fileName;
string absoluteFileName = Path.GetFileName(fileName);
request = WebRequest.Create(new Uri(string.Format(#"ftp://{0}/{1}/{2}", "127.0.0.1", folderName, absoluteFileName))) as FtpWebRequest;
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
request.UseBinary = 1;
request.UsePassive = 1;
request.KeepAlive = 1;
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(user, pass);
request.ConnectionGroupName = "group";
using (FileStream fs = File.OpenRead(fileName))
{
byte[] buffer = new byte[fs.Length];
fs.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
fs.Close();
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
requestStream.Flush();
requestStream.Close();
}
}
How to use
UploadFtpFile("testFolder", "E:\\filesToUpload\\test.img");
use this in your foreach
and you only need to create folder one time
to create a folder
request = WebRequest.Create(new Uri(string.Format(#"ftp://{0}/{1}/", "127.0.0.1", "testFolder"))) as FtpWebRequest;
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.MakeDirectory;
FtpWebResponse ftpResponse = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
The following works for me:
public virtual void Send(string fileName, byte[] file)
{
ByteArrayToFile(fileName, file);
var request = (FtpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(new Uri(ServerUrl + fileName));
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
request.UsePassive = false;
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(UserName, Password);
request.ContentLength = file.Length;
var requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(file, 0, file.Length);
requestStream.Close();
var response = (FtpWebResponse) request.GetResponse();
if (response != null)
response.Close();
}
You can't read send the file parameter in your code as it is only the filename.
Use the following:
byte[] bytes = File.ReadAllBytes(dir + file);
To get the file so you can pass it to the Send method.
public static void UploadFileToFtp(string url, string filePath, string username, string password)
{
var fileName = Path.GetFileName(filePath);
var request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url + fileName);
request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(username, password);
request.UsePassive = true;
request.UseBinary = true;
request.KeepAlive = false;
using (var fileStream = File.OpenRead(filePath))
{
using (var requestStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
fileStream.CopyTo(requestStream);
requestStream.Close();
}
}
var response = (FtpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine("Upload done: {0}", response.StatusDescription);
response.Close();
}
In the first example must change those to:
requestStream.Flush();
requestStream.Close();
First flush and after that close.
This works for me,this method will SFTP a file to a location within your network.
It uses SSH.NET.2013.4.7 library.One can just download it for free.
//Secure FTP
public void SecureFTPUploadFile(string destinationHost,int port,string username,string password,string source,string destination)
{
ConnectionInfo ConnNfo = new ConnectionInfo(destinationHost, port, username, new PasswordAuthenticationMethod(username, password));
var temp = destination.Split('/');
string destinationFileName = temp[temp.Count() - 1];
string parentDirectory = destination.Remove(destination.Length - (destinationFileName.Length + 1), destinationFileName.Length + 1);
using (var sshclient = new SshClient(ConnNfo))
{
sshclient.Connect();
using (var cmd = sshclient.CreateCommand("mkdir -p " + parentDirectory + " && chmod +rw " + parentDirectory))
{
cmd.Execute();
}
sshclient.Disconnect();
}
using (var sftp = new SftpClient(ConnNfo))
{
sftp.Connect();
sftp.ChangeDirectory(parentDirectory);
using (var uplfileStream = System.IO.File.OpenRead(source))
{
sftp.UploadFile(uplfileStream, destinationFileName, true);
}
sftp.Disconnect();
}
}

Best way I've found is FluentFtp
You can find the repo here:
https://github.com/robinrodricks/FluentFTP
and the quickstart example here:
https://github.com/robinrodricks/FluentFTP/wiki/Quick-Start-Example.
And actually the WebRequest class recommended by a few people here, is not recommended by Microsoft anymore, check out this page:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.net.webrequest?view=net-5.0
// create an FTP client and specify the host, username and password
// (delete the credentials to use the "anonymous" account)
FtpClient client = new FtpClient("123.123.123.123", "david", "pass123");
// connect to the server and automatically detect working FTP settings
client.AutoConnect();
// upload a file and retry 3 times before giving up
client.RetryAttempts = 3;
client.UploadFile(#"C:\MyVideo.mp4", "/htdocs/big.txt",
FtpRemoteExists.Overwrite, false, FtpVerify.Retry);
// disconnect! good bye!
client.Disconnect();
I have observed that -
FtpwebRequest is missing.
As the target is FTP, so the NetworkCredential required.
I have prepared a method that works like this, you can replace the value of the variable ftpurl with the parameter TargetDestinationPath. I had tested this method on winforms application :
private void UploadProfileImage(string TargetFileName, string TargetDestinationPath, string FiletoUpload)
{
//Get the Image Destination path
string imageName = TargetFileName; //you can comment this
string imgPath = TargetDestinationPath;
string ftpurl = "ftp://downloads.abc.com/downloads.abc.com/MobileApps/SystemImages/ProfileImages/" + imgPath;
string ftpusername = krayknot_DAL.clsGlobal.FTPUsername;
string ftppassword = krayknot_DAL.clsGlobal.FTPPassword;
string fileurl = FiletoUpload;
FtpWebRequest ftpClient = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(ftpurl);
ftpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(ftpusername, ftppassword);
ftpClient.Method = System.Net.WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;
ftpClient.UseBinary = true;
ftpClient.KeepAlive = true;
System.IO.FileInfo fi = new System.IO.FileInfo(fileurl);
ftpClient.ContentLength = fi.Length;
byte[] buffer = new byte[4097];
int bytes = 0;
int total_bytes = (int)fi.Length;
System.IO.FileStream fs = fi.OpenRead();
System.IO.Stream rs = ftpClient.GetRequestStream();
while (total_bytes > 0)
{
bytes = fs.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
rs.Write(buffer, 0, bytes);
total_bytes = total_bytes - bytes;
}
//fs.Flush();
fs.Close();
rs.Close();
FtpWebResponse uploadResponse = (FtpWebResponse)ftpClient.GetResponse();
string value = uploadResponse.StatusDescription;
uploadResponse.Close();
}

log in to a site programatically using C#

I want to log in to a website setting.fun-freak.com just for learning purpose by using a windows desktop application. I used webrequest and tried as
string formUrl = "http://setting.fun-freak.com/Account/Login.aspx";
string formParams = string.Format("ctl00$MainContent$txtUserName=loginId&ctl00$MainContent$txtPassword=password");
string cookieHeader;
WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create(formUrl);
req.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
req.Method = "POST";
byte[] bytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(formParams);
req.ContentLength = bytes.Length;
using (Stream os = req.GetRequestStream())
{
os.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
}
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(req.GetResponse()))
{
pageSource = sr.ReadToEnd();
}
I assume that this pageSource object will have html of next page after login page (if login succesfully), but it contains the same login page in return.
How can I successfully log in to this website and get home page in response?
Moreover, this (setting.fun-freak.com) my own site, built in asp.net webforms. Here is button click event code (May be it help to dig out the problem)
UserContainer User = new UserProcessing().Authenticate(txtUserName.Text, txtPassword.Text);
if (User != null)
{
Session["User"] = User;
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(txtUserName.Text, RememberMe.Checked);
}
else
{
lblMessage.Text = "Invalid credentials. Please try again";
}
Any help will be appreciated.
I added this piece of code as it is, but it still not working .
it is taken from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/debx8sh9.aspx
// Create a request using a URL that can receive a post.
WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("http://setting.fun-freak.com/Account/Login.aspx");
// Set the Method property of the request to POST.
request.Method = "POST";
// Create POST data and convert it to a byte array.
string postData = "ctl00$MainContent$txtUserName=UserName&ctl00$MainContent$txtPassword=Password";
byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postData);
// Set the ContentType property of the WebRequest.
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
// Set the ContentLength property of the WebRequest.
request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;
// Get the request stream.
Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream();
// Write the data to the request stream.
dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
// Close the Stream object.
dataStream.Close();
// Get the response.
WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
// Display the status.
Console.WriteLine(((HttpWebResponse)response).StatusDescription);
// Get the stream containing content returned by the server.
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
// Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
// Read the content.
string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
// Display the content.
Console.WriteLine(responseFromServer);
// Clean up the streams.
reader.Close();
dataStream.Close();
response.Close();
The problem is that the object responseFromServer do not show then content of next to the login page. Its shows only login page contents.

How to create a request to a URL and write the response to the page

I believe I've done this before, but I can't seem to remember how:(
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("www.example.com");
request.Method = "GET";
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
How do I then write the response to the page?
Thanks a lot.
HttpWebRequest r = ( HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://www.demo.com");
r.Method = "Get";
HttpWebResponse res = (HttpWebResponse)r.GetResponse();
Stream sr= res.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader sre = new StreamReader(sr);
string s= sre.ReadToEnd();
Response.Write(s);
The below example demonstrates how it can be done:
string myRequest = "abc=1&pqr=2&lmn=3";
string myResponse="";
string myUrl = "Where you want to post data";
System.IO.StreamWriter myWriter = null;// it will open a http connection with provided url
System.Net.HttpWebRequest objRequest = (System.Net.HttpWebRequest)System.Net.WebRequest.Create(myUrl);//send data using objxmlhttp object
objRequest.Method = "GET";
objRequest.ContentLength = TranRequest.Length;
objRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";//to set content type
myWriter = new System.IO.StreamWriter(objRequest.GetRequestStream());
myWriter.Write(myRequest);//send data
myWriter.Close();//closed the myWriter object
System.Net.HttpWebResponse objResponse = (System.Net.HttpWebResponse)objRequest.GetResponse();//receive the responce from objxmlhttp object
using (System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader(objResponse.GetResponseStream()))
{
myResponse= sr.ReadToEnd();
}
Then u can use the data in myResponse to display whatever is returned.
Hope this helps you...

How to dynamically invoke Web Services in .Net

I am writing a Web service client in C# which takes the URL of the web Service, and a web method name.
I want to check if thew Web method actually receives an int and returns a DataTable, and if this is true, it should call it and return the DataTable.
I have found a couple of posts where this is accomplished compiling dynamically the Proxy class.
But for my case this'd be too expensive, because the client is actually a WSS WebPart, and I don't want to do this every time the page is rendered; only when the properties are changed.
In the end of the day web service description is just an XML file. You can grab it by requesting service.asmx?WSDL:
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://localhost:1753/Service1.asmx?WSDL");
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream(), Encoding.UTF8);
string xml = reader.ReadToEnd();
Once you have service description you can parse it and check method signature. Then, you can invoke the method using HTTP POST:
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://localhost:1753/Service1.asmx?HelloWorld");
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8";
byte[] data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(
#"<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<soap12:Envelope xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema' xmlns:soap12='http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope'>
<soap12:Body>
<HelloWorld xmlns='http://tempuri.org/' />
</soap12:Body>
</soap12:Envelope>");
request.ContentLength = data.Length;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
requestStream.Close();
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream(), Encoding.UTF8);
string xml = reader.ReadToEnd();
If the Web Service is always the same (i.e. the method is the same as well as what it returns) and uit's just the url that might change, then just add a web reference to the project with the webpart in it, the set the Url of the proxy like so:
using (var serviceProxy = new ServiceProxy())
{
serviceProxy.Url = somepropertysetbythewebpart;
// make call to method here
}
After a lot of resarching I found out how to do it. The code of the selected answer is almost there, but I had to add the SOAPAction in the header and also change the ContentType.
Here is the entire code:
var strRequest = #"<soap12:Envelope>
...
</soap12:Envelope>";
string webServiceUrl = "http://localhost:8080/AccontService.svc";
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(webServiceUrl);
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "text/xml;charset=UTF-8";
request.Accept = "text/xml";
request.Headers.Add("SOAPAction", "http://tempuri.org/IAccountService/UpdateAccount");
byte[] data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(strRequest);
request.ContentLength = data.Length;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
requestStream.Close();
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream(), Encoding.UTF8);
string responseXmlString = reader.ReadToEnd();
return new HttpResponseMessage()
{
Content = new StringContent(responseXmlString, Encoding.UTF8, "application/xml")
};
