Redirection Event

Fires when the server suggests a redirect.

Syntax

• C#
• VB.NET

public event OnRedirectionHandler OnRedirection;

public delegate void OnRedirectionHandler(object sender, HttpclientRedirectionEventArgs e);

public class HttpclientRedirectionEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string OldURL { get; }
  public string NewURL { get; set; }
  public bool AllowRedirection { get; set; }
}

Public Event OnRedirection As OnRedirectionHandler

Public Delegate Sub OnRedirectionHandler(sender As Object, e As HttpclientRedirectionEventArgs)

Public Class HttpclientRedirectionEventArgs Inherits EventArgs
  Public ReadOnly Property OldURL As String
  Public Property NewURL As String
  Public Property AllowRedirection As Boolean
End Class

Remarks

This event is fired when the server suggests a redirection request (typically via a 301 or 302 response). OldURL indicates the 'from' page, and NewURL indicates the 'to' one. The destination page can be altered by the application if needed. Use AllowRedirection to block undesirable redirects.

Generally, this is a notification event: the component handles redirections automatically. Use the MaxRedirections config property to limit the number of redirection hops.
