✅ httpclient get download stream in blazor

i have this code to download a file from remote source (about 100 MB).

HttpRequestMessage requestMessage = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, REMOTE_URL);
HttpResponseMessage responseMessage = await Http.SendAsync(
    requestMessage,
    HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead);
using Stream remoteStream = await responseMessage.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024 * 1024];

while (CurrentProgress < MaxProgress)
{
    int read = await remoteStream.ReadAsync(
        buffer,
        0,
        buffer.Length);
    CurrentProgress += read;
    StateHasChanged();
}

but it seems that that code above downloads the whole file first at line using Stream remoteStream so i cant really show any progress to the gui. is this a bug with the blazor's httpclient implementation because the code works fine on my wpf app. thanks

You’re probably hitting https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/79238

apparently it seems to be a regression. if there is no more updates i will just use blazore 6 😦
