public DownloadStream download (Service service, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
Downloads and returns a DownloadStream allowing the content represented by this to be read.
To get the content type of the downloaded data, get_content_type can be called on the returned DownloadStream. Calling get_content_length on the stream will not return a meaningful result, however, as the stream is encoded in chunks, rather than by content length.
In order to cancel the download, a Cancellable passed in to cancellable must be cancelled using
cancel. Cancelling the individual InputStream operations on the
DownloadStream will not cancel the entire download; merely the read or close
operation in question. See the cancellable for more details.
