c# - Building URI with the http client API -

i have build uri address dynamic query strings , looking comfortable way build them via code.

i browsed system.net.http assembly doesn't found class or method case. api not provide this? search results here @ stackoverflow uses httputility class system.web, don't want reference asp.net components in class library.

i need uri : http://www.mybase.com/get?a=1&b=c.

thanks in advance helping!

update (2013/9/8):

my solution create uri builder uses system.net.webutilitiy class encoding values (the imported nuget package unfortunately didn't provide strong name key). here's code :

/// <summary> /// helper class creating uri query string parameter. /// </summary> internal class urlbuilder {     private stringbuilder urlstringbuilder { get; set; }     private bool firstparameter { get; set; }      /// <summary>     /// creates instance of uribuilder     /// </summary>     /// <param name="baseurl">the base address (e.g: http://localhost:12345)</param>     public urlbuilder(string baseurl)     {         urlstringbuilder = new stringbuilder(baseurl);         firstparameter = true;     }      /// <summary>     /// adds new parameter uri     /// </summary>     /// <param name="key">the key </param>     /// <param name="value">the value</param>     /// <remarks>     /// value converted url valid coding.     /// </remarks>     public void addparameter(string key, string value)     {         string urlencodevalue = webutility.urlencode(value);          if (firstparameter)         {             urlstringbuilder.appendformat("?{0}={1}", key, urlencodevalue);             firstparameter = false;         }         else         {             urlstringbuilder.appendformat("&{0}={1}", key, urlencodevalue);         }      }      /// <summary>     /// gets uri added paraemter     /// </summary>     /// <returns>the complete uri string</returns>     public string geturl()     {         return urlstringbuilder.tostring();     } } 

hope helps here @ stackoverflow. request working.

if take dependency on tavis.link can use uri templates specify parameters.

    [fact]     public void soquestion18302092()     {         var link = new link();         link.target = new uri("http://www.mybase.com/get{?a,b}");          link.setparameter("a","1");         link.setparameter("b", "c");          var request = link.createrequest();         assert.equal("http://www.mybase.com/get?a=1&b=c", request.requesturi.originalstring);       } 

there more examples of can tavis.link on github repo.
