C# HttpWebRequest和WebClient的区别 通过WebClient/HttpWebRequest实现http的post/get方法

一 HttpWebReques
1,HttpWebRequest是个抽象类，所以无法new的，需要调用HttpWebRequest.Create();
2,其Method指定了请求类型，这里用的GET,还有POST；也可以指定ConentType;
3,其请求的Uri必须是绝对地址;
4,其请求是异步回调方式的，从BeginGetResponse开始，并通过AsyncCallback指定回调方法；
二 WebClient
1,WebClient 方式使用基于事件的异步编程模型,在HTTP响应返回时引发的WebClient回调是在UI线程中调用的，因此可用于更新UI元素的属性，
例如把 HTTP响应中的数据绑定到UI的指定控件上进行显示。HttpWebRequest是基于后台进程运行的，回调不是UI线程，所以不能直接对UI进行操作，通常使用Dispatcher.BeginInvoke()跟界面进行通讯。

//body是要传递的参数,格式"roleId=1&uid=2"
//post的cotentType填写:
//"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
//soap填写:"text/xml; charset=utf-8"
    public static string PostHttp(string url, string body, string contentType)
    {
        HttpWebRequest httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);

        httpWebRequest.ContentType = contentType;
        httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";
        httpWebRequest.Timeout = 20000;

        byte[] btBodys = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(body);
        httpWebRequest.ContentLength = btBodys.Length;
        httpWebRequest.GetRequestStream().Write(btBodys, 0, btBodys.Length);

        HttpWebResponse httpWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
        StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(httpWebResponse.GetResponseStream());
        string responseContent = streamReader.ReadToEnd();

        httpWebResponse.Close();
        streamReader.Close();
        httpWebRequest.Abort();
        httpWebResponse.Close();

        return responseContent;
    }
