Where is the constant for "HttpRequest.RequestType" and "WebRequest.Method" values in .NET?

Question

I need to check the RequestType of an HttpRequest in ASP.NET (or WebRequest.Method). I know that I can just use the string values "POST" or "GET" for the request type, but I could have sworn there was a constant somewhere in some class in .NET that contained the values.

Out of curiosity I was wondering if anyone knew what class these string constants for GET and POST were in. I've tried searching online but I've had no luck, so I thought I'd ask here.

Answer 1

System.Net.WebRequestMethods.Http     .Connect = "CONNECT"     .Get = "GET"     .Head = "HEAD"     .MkCol = "MKCOL"     .Post = "POST"     .Put = "PUT" 

Ultimately, though; since const expressions are burned into the caller, this is identical to using "GET" etc, just without the risk of a typo.
