Summary: System.Net.WebClient.DownloadString() fails in invalid
protocol
Product: Mono: Class Libraries
Version: 1.2.5
Platform: i686
OS/Version: UNIX Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Critical
Priority: P5 - None
Component: CORLIB
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Found By: ---
Description of Problem:
When System.Net.WebClient.DownloadString() is used to access an url that starts
with an invalid protocol string (e.g. "tp://localhost"), mono-1.2.5.1 on Fedora
Core 6 throws a System.NotSupportedException, rather than a
System.Net.WebException.
Note that MS .Net 2.0 throws a System.Net.WebException in this scenario.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
The following program fails on mono, but succeeds on .Net:
try
{
new System.Net.WebClient().DownloadString("tp://invalid.url");
Assert.Fail();
}
catch (System.Net.WebException) { }
catch (NotSupportedException)
{
Assert.Fail();
}
Actual Results:
DownloadString("tp://invalid.url") throws a NotSupportedException.
Expected Results:
DownloadString("tp://invalid.url") should throw a WebException.
How often does this happen?
Every time.
