How Can My Server Program Read The Variables Sent Using A Http 'get' Request Method In Vb.net?

I have written server code in vb.Net. I want it to read to variables sent by another server's HTTP 'GET' request. For example the first server will send this URL http://localhost/s

Solution 1:

You can get them from the Context.Request.QueryString object:

mySender = Context.Request.QueryString("sender").ToString

This assumes the code you are running on your server is running under IIS. I notice the call is to a .PHP page and wonder how you are actually getting the url to the server running the VB code.

If this is simply processing the URL as a string, then the following should handle it for you:

Dim tempArray AsString()
    Dim tempValuePairs AsString()
    Dim tempPair AsString()
    Dim tempValue AsStringDim tempString AsString

    tempArray = sRequest.Split(CChar("?"))
    If tempArray.Length <> 2Then'url not validReturnEndIf
    tempValuePairs = tempArray(1).Split(CChar("&"))

    ForEach tempString In tempValuePairs
        tempPair = tempString.Split(CChar("="))
        tempValue = tempPair(1)

        'check for pair name, tempvalue will contain dataSelectCase tempPair(0).ToLower
            Case"sender"
                mySender = tempValue
            Case"receiver"Case"msgdata"Case"recvtime"Case"msgid"CaseElseEndSelectNext
