What's New

Cancellation and Headers

ModernHttpClient now correctly handles cancellation, closing the underlying connection as soon as possible. To do this fully, you must both supply and cancel a CancellationToken, and should you receive an HttpResponseMessage, you must Dispose the Content of the message.

Both iOS and Android also now correctly support HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead, meaning that HttpClient will return as soon as headers are available, which means you can cancel a request based on the header content (i.e. if you determine that the request is not actually needed, you can Dispose the Content and close the underlying socket connection).

Other Bug Fixes
