I have multiple IPs on the server and would like to chose which one of those I want to use when using HttpClient class to get/post data from an API. (or to even send requests at the same time but utilise the 2 IPs and not just one)
I have seen some examples using HttpWebRequest ( here ) that utilises delegate but I would like to carry on using HttpClient implementation.
[ This will be a hacky code, because there is no method/property to access the ServicePoint ]
You can use reflection to access the underlying ServicePoint as below (Since there is no public/private field/property to access this value, I will hook the startRequest delegate)
HttpClientHandler SetServicePointOptions(HttpClientHandler handler)
{
var field = handler.GetType().GetField("_startRequest", BindingFlags.NonPublic| BindingFlags.Instance); // Fieldname has a _ due to being private
var startRequest = (Action<object>)field.GetValue(handler);
Action<object> newStartRequest = obj =>
{
var webReqField = obj.GetType().GetField("webRequest", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);
var webRequest = webReqField.GetValue(obj) as HttpWebRequest;
webRequest.ServicePoint.BindIPEndPointDelegate = new BindIPEndPoint(BindIPEndPointCallback);
startRequest(obj); //call original action
};
field.SetValue(handler, newStartRequest); //replace original 'startRequest' with the one above
return handler;
}
BindIPEndPointCallback is the one you linked in your question. Modify it as you wish. Now you can use this method like
HttpClientHandler handler = SetServicePointOptions(new HttpClientHandler());
HttpClient client = new HttpClient(handler);
var str = await client.GetStringAsync("https://google.com");
