What is the alternate of HttpRequest.EnableRewind() in ASP.NET Core 3.0?

Question

BufferingHelper.EnableRewind();

Above is an extension method for HttpRequest object in ASP.NET Core 2.2. It is no more there in ASP.NET Core 3.0 (atleast with this name). I want to know it's alternate in ASP.NET Core 3.0. I am not sure if

HttpRequestRewindExtensions.EnableBuffering();

is the alternate.

Answer 1

The alternate is HttpRequestRewindExtensions.EnableBuffering(), indeed. You can see here that internally it just calls EnableRewind().

Answer 2

EnableBuffering() internally calls EnableRewind(). We can see below definition of HttpRequestRewindExtensions class.

public static class HttpRequestRewindExtensions
{
    public static void EnableBuffering(this HttpRequest request)
    {
        BufferingHelper.EnableRewind(request);
    }
}
