VB.Net HTTP Wrapper by Kitsune.

[Kitsune]

Hello I am new to Logical Gamers, and i wanted to share my basic VB.Net HttpWrapper.
I'm a newbie coder and have been attempting Gaiaonline's login, haven't succeeded yet but im still giving it a try.

Anyway here is my wrapper class: TinyUpload.com - best file hosting solution, with no limits, totaly free

May need Imports:

Imports System.IO, System.Net

Usage Example:

Dim Wrapper As New Wrapper()
dim html as string
'(HTML AS RESPONSE, URL, METHOD, POSTdata, Refferer)
Wrapper.Webrequest(html, "Http://www.blah.com", POST, "data+data+data", "")
Wrapper.Webrequest(html, "Http://www.blah.com", GET, "", "")

Let me know if there is anything you want me to add or have any suggestions.

Referring to Kitsune/Flame?

[The Unintelligible]

Yeah, don't think it's Izaya/Flame.

Apologies for derailing your thread, OP.

[Kitsune]

No, im not anyone else.
Figures some one else would use Kitsune ><
Also, @Artificial i'm looking at Stapled's C# gaia login, but it's hard for me to understand and if i try to add an if-else i get some error in visual studio that says "Unreachable code".

Post your code. It sounds like you're creating (possible a set of) conditions that will never evaluate to true.

[Kitsune]

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        public static Boolean GaiaLogin(string username, string password)
        {
            HttpInterface wrapper = new HttpInterface();
            Console.WriteLine("Logging");
            string pd = StringExtensions.gsb((wrapper.get("http://www.gaiaonline.com/")), "</fieldset>", "</form>").Replace("data-value", "");
            List<string> n = StringExtensions.gasb(pd, "name=\"", "\"");
            List<string> v = StringExtensions.gasb(pd, "value=\"", "\"");
            string postdata = n[0] + "=" + v[0]
                            + "&" + n[1] + "=" + v[1]
                            + "&" + n[2] + "=" + v[2]
                            + "&" + n[3] + "=" + v[3]
                            + "&" + "username=" + username + "&password=" + password;
            string login = wrapper.post("http://www.gaiaonline.com/auth/login/", postdata);
            login = wrapper.get("http://www.gaiaonline.com/");
            return login.Contains("Welcome back");
             <--------- Want to Add Something here, but i get error as described before --------->

        }
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            GaiaLogin("******", "******"); <----- Account Details
     
        }
    }
}

I kinda wanna write something like this:

       if (login.Contains("Welcome back")) 
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Pass");
            }
            else 
                Console.WriteLine("Fail");
        }

[The Unintelligible]

Put if (login.Contains("Welcome back")) { Console.WriteLine("Pass"); } else Console.WriteLine("Fail"); }

or whatever your code is before the return login.Contains("welcome back")

Return also signifies the end of a function or procedure. At least in most languages. See if something like that works. If not I'm probably overlooking another error in your code.

Ah! Thank you for that information, i got it trk; however i have a lot of C# learning i need to do before i can compile a decent program but i suppose i'm one step closer.
I wish i could effectively convert everything into VB.NET (including chad's String Extensions) but i end up getting tons of errors i cant fix.

[The Unintelligible]

There aren't really significant differences in VB.NET and C# syntactically. Both are powered by the underlying .NET Framework.

So porting the code shouldn't be too hard if you can read basic code and know a bit about the .NET libraries.

Anyway, if you need any help feel free to ask here and I'm sure someone will assist you.

I'll post a vb.net login with wrappers and all that good stuff in the next few days.
