wpf download file from website from wpf application
Edit
simple.. below function downloads the file from the website, reads the content assuming it is a text file, and returns the content.
WPF Sample Code
private string DownloadTemplate(string baseurl, string filename)
{
string strtemplatedata = "";
try
{
WebClient Client = new WebClient();
Client.DownloadFile(baseurl filename, filename);
StreamReader re = File.OpenText(filename);
string input = null;
while ((input = re.ReadLine()) != null)
{
strtemplatedata = strtemplatedata input;
}
re.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show("Error while fetching the file" filename "\r\n" ex.Message "\r\n" ex.StackTrace);
}
return strtemplatedata;
}
Use System.Net namespace before executing.
