Get stream to read from file

Here is one example how to use GetInputStream method to download file.

C# example

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using Independentsoft.Webdav;

namespace Sample
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            NetworkCredential credential = new NetworkCredential("username", "password");
            WebdavSession session = new WebdavSession(credential);
            Resource resource = new Resource(session);
            Stream input = resource.GetInputStream("http://myserver/dav/file1.dat");

            FileStream file = new FileStream("c:\\file1.dat", FileMode.CreateNew);

            byte[] buffer = new byte[2048];
            int len = 0;

            while ((len = input.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
            {
                file.Write(buffer, 0, len);
            }

            file.Close();
            input.Close();
        }
    }
}

VB example

Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Net
Imports Independentsoft.Webdav

Namespace Sample
    Class Module1
        Shared Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)

            Dim credential As NetworkCredential = New NetworkCredential("username", "password")
            Dim session As WebdavSession = New WebdavSession(credential)
            Dim resource As Resource = New Resource(session)

            Dim input As Stream = resource.GetInputStream("http://myserver/dav/file1.dat")

            Dim file As FileStream = New FileStream("c:\\file1.dat", FileMode.CreateNew)

            Dim buffer() As Byte = New Byte(2048) {}
            Dim len As Integer = input.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)

            While (len > 0)
                file.Write(buffer, 0, len)
                len = input.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)
            End While

            file.Close()
            input.Close()
        End Sub
    End Class
End Namespace
