Can any one explain to me the meaning of this function

AddHandler FiddlerApplication.BeforeResponse, AddressOf FiddlerBeforeResponseHandler
AddHandler FiddlerApplication.BeforeRequest, AddressOf FiddlerBeforeRequestHandler
AddHandler FiddlerApplication.AfterSessionComplete, AddressOf FiddlerAfterRequest

What the meaning of BeforeResponse, BeforeRequest and AfterSessionComplete

Solution

  • Those are events you can handle in FiddlerCore :

    • BeforeRequest is raised by FiddlerCore just after he gets the request from the client (browser) and just before he sends the request to the server. You can modify client request from here.
    • BeforeResponse is raised by FiddleCore just after he receive the response from the web server and just before he sends that response to the client. Unless the response was configured to stream (oSession.bBufferResponse=false), you can modify server response from here.
    • AfterSessionComplete is raised after the final response was sent to the client.
