Dear Developer,

I am trying to request to Java Server Socket but they are unable to receive my data_string (data="ABC").

They receive with error....
"java.io.StreamCorruptedException: invalid stream header: 56455249"

my code is as below...

string url = "http://www.myserverurl.com";
                HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
                string proxy = null;

                string data = "ABC";
                byte[] buffer = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data);

                req.Method = "POST";
                req.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
                req.ContentLength = buffer.Length;
                req.Proxy = new WebProxy(proxy, true);
                req.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();

                Stream reqst = req.GetRequestStream(); // add form data to request stream 
                reqst.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
                reqst.Flush();
                reqst.Close();

I require Stream obj to send data to server as string and not as byte. How to do so?

Thanks in advance.
