contentLength property

@override int get contentLength

Gets the content length of the request. If the size of the request is not known in advance, the content length should be null.

Implementation

@override
int get contentLength => _bytes.length;

@override set contentLength (int? length)

Sets the content length of the request body. This is only supported in streamed requests since the body may be sent asynchronously after the headers have been sent.

Implementation

@override
set contentLength(int? length) {
  throw UnsupportedError(
      'The content-length of a request cannot be set manually when the request body is known in advance.');
}
