Show progress bar until HttpClient response not come

Which framework are you using? WinForms and WPF, they all have different implementations of progressbars and the HttpClient objects remain same. In the WPF framework, you can use ProgressBar to show the current progress of your application's process. Read this article for more on that,http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/393ac5/use-of-progressbar-in-wpf/.

The fact that HttpClient object has to take care of, is the just the download of the online resource. That can be handled like this,

progressBar.Visibility=Visibility.Visible;
using(varclient=newHttpClient()){
//Settheresourcesbaseaddressetc.
client.GetAsync("path");
varresponse=client.Result;//Gettheresult
progressBar.Visibility=Visibility.Collapsed;//Hideprogressbar.
}

These properties were taken from the ProgressBar object of WPF framework (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.progressbar(v=vs.110).aspx), you can use these properties and show and hide the progressbar. In the above code, the bar is shown when the process starts and it hides as soon as the download finishes (response has been taken).
