Hi,

I am using Facedetection in a Windows application in VB 2010.

My code as follows:
Dim fileurl As String = UrlEncode(URL_ServiceTab_TextBox_Preferences.Text)
Dim url As String = “https://faceplusplus-faceplusplus.p.mashape.com/detection/detect?url=” & fileurl
Dim req As HttpWebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create(url), HttpWebRequest)
Dim hed As WebHeaderCollection = req.Headers
hed.Add(“X-Mashape-Authorization:2hGIFmZREbw8L0uMjDKMdWFysoOsP7Ph”)
Dim res As HttpWebResponse
req.Method = "GET"
res = CType(req.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse) ’ Send Request
webStream = res.GetResponseStream() ’ Get Response
Dim webStreamReader As New StreamReader(webStream)
While webStreamReader.Peek >= 0
webResponse = webStreamReader.ReadToEnd()
End While
Dim i As Integer = 0
MsgBox(webResponse)

My app is working perfectly on HTTP URLs.
Please advise how i can use the app for a local file : eg. “D:\test.jpg”
