URL 字符串的正确格式

Question

What is a proper URL for accessing a HTTP Server?

byte[] vs = new HttpClient().GetBytes("192.168.1.22:8080/myDataCollection.xml");
var bytes = vs;
CrestronConsole.PrintLine("bytes : {0}", bytes);
return bytes.ToString();

this gives me an error that the string is not valid.

As Hans says in the comment - the issue is that you aren't providing the protocol in the URL, try:

byte[] vs = new HttpClient().GetBytes("https:192.168.1.22:8080/myDataCollection.xml");

Also, it's worth noting that the method you've written will not return the XML string. If you want the method to return the XML string you'll need to do it this way (replacing Default with the relevant encoding):

string xmlString = System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetString(vs);
return xmlString;
