How to add headers to a httprequestmessage

Question

I would like to add headers to a HttpRequestMessage. Problem is HttpRequestHeaders has no constructor, HttpHeaders is abstract, ... . Is there any way we can use these classes somewhere in our code ( I could use a List<Tuple<string, List<string>> but does not look nice at all)

Answer 1

An HttpRequestMessage already has an instance of HttpRequestHeaders, and you can not change it. You can add a header like this:

message.Headers.Add("X-Hello", "world");
