How To Get The Url To The Current Action (after Modifying Some Route Data)
Aug 17, 2010I'm localising a site via a Change Language control in the master page. I need to render the control with the current url you're on in each of the different languages.
So if you're on http://site.com/en/Home/About and you change the language to french, I need to direct you to http://site.com/fr/Home/About.
The localisation code works on the route data language property, so I've been trying to figure out how I can:
Get access to the current action (with all original parameters) Get the url to the current action (with all original parameters) with the route data changed.
I've tried passing the ViewContext from the parent into the UserControl, which gives me access to the route data but I can't figure out how to get the language routed url from that.
Automatically Add Specific Value From Current Route To All Generated Links?
Feb 20, 2011I have site culture in URLs like this:
routes.MapRoute(
"Default",
"{language}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
languageDefaults,
languageConstraints)
And it works like a charm with a little help from custom MvcHttpHandler that sets current thread's UI culture on every request based on route value. My problem is how do I automatically add the language route value from current request to all outgoing links? E.g. when page /EN/Foo/Bar is requested, I would like this
<%=Html.ActionLink(
"example link",
MVC.Home.Index()) %>
To automatically generate the same result as this:
<%=Html.ActionLink(
"example link",
MVC.Home.Index()
.AddRouteValue(
"language",
this.ViewContext.RouteData.Values["language"]) %>
And of course the same for all other helpers like BeginForm() etc. In my current code base there are already > 1000 occasions where these helpers are used, and requiring .AddRouteValue every time is very fragile as some developer will forget to use it with 100 % certainty. I hope the only solution is not creating custom Html helpers for everything?

Web Forms :: Using HttpContext.Current.Items To Store Information?
Oct 27, 2010I was under the impression that you could use the HttpContext.Current.Items collection to pass information between pages but it doesnt seem to workLets say i have a Page1 ButtonClick, the button click handler stores a value in the collection like so; HttpContext.Current.Items("Test1") = "Test"Then i do Response.Redirect("Page2.aspx").In the Form_Load of Page2, HttpContext.Current.Items("Test1") contains nothing. Why does this not work when its all part of the same postback?This would be perfect, because i wouldnt need to worry about clearing the values between requests because they would automatically get cleared each time the page was posted back.

AJAX :: Slideshow Extender Retrieve Current Display Picture Information?
Feb 17, 2010My slideshow extender work perfectly fine, but I want to retrieve the current display picture's information on the server side.
So I added a normal asp button on the same page as the slideshow extender. When button clicked, it fire off a server side function. In the function I grabbed the SlideShow's name label, description label or the Image, but none of them contain any current information of the picture displayed at slideshow extender.
Is there another way to obtain the slideshow extender current state? Or am are those name, description label text value should be updated?
All Viewmodels Inherit From 'BaseViewModel', Can Set This Up In OnActionExecuting
Jan 22, 2011If all my actions have a model that inherits from BaseViewModel, is it possible to initialize this model from the OnActionExecuting method?
Currently in all my actions I do this:
var model = new SomeModel();
model.User = Users.Get(...);
Now I am loading the user object in OnActionExecuting, so I was hoping I could setup my model from there somehow.
C# - Redirect In FileAttribute's OnActionExecuting Not Properly Working
Feb 3, 2010I have an action called EditProfile. To secure it I have added a class RequireUserLogin inherited from ActionFilterAttribute. In the OnActionExecuting, when I redirect user to login page, before going to login page, it first execute the EditProfile action code (which i don't expect) and than redirect the user to login page. I want to not come in action code. Currently the only option I have is throw exception. Is there any other options. The code is:
public class RequireUserLogin : ActionFilterAttribute
{
public override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(userID))
{
filterContext.HttpContext.Response.Redirect("http://localhost/test/login");
}
base.OnActionExecuting(filterContext);
}
The EditProfile action is:
[RequireUserLogin()]
public ActionResult EditProfile()
{
}

MVC :: Controller Base Class Initialize() And OnActionExecuting() Not Called When Unit Testing?
Nov 16, 2010I'm using a simple base class for my controller that sets a piece of ViewData and makes use of the HttpContext. My understanding is that I need to put this code in Initialize() or OnActionExecuting(). I tried both, but believe Initialize() is what I want.
This works when running the app in VS just fine.
I wrote a unit test that calls the action and checks the ViewData for the expected value. When unit testing, neither method is called.

Route Constraints And Empty Route?
Sep 24, 2010I have a url that I want to map routing to:
[URL]
where tabvalue is one of: "personal", "professional", "values" or nothing.
I want to map it to a route like:
Member/Edit/{tab}
But my problem is - I don't know how to specify such constraints. I'm trying this regex:
^[personal|professional|values]{0,1}$
but it only works when I use url
[URL]
[URL]
and doesn't work for
[URL]
how to specify the correct constraint?
P.S. I'm not using MVC, just asp.net WebForms
C# - MVC 3 Custom Route Handler - Skip To Next Custom Route Rule?
Mar 14, 2011Was looking at asp.net mvc complex routing for tree path as an example of how to define a custom route handler for my MVC app. Essentially, I want to give the end user ultimate flexibility in defining the URL for any given page, so I provide them with a field in the interface to specify their own custom URL.
My custom route handler is basically a wild-card handler. It will do a lookup and if it finds a match, map it accordingly. However, if no match is found, I want it to fall back and find the next rule that matches in the global.asax. Is that possible? Or do I essentially need to code the mappings that used to exist in my global.asax into my custom route handler?
ADO.NET :: Automatically Loading Information From A MS SQL DB When Information Is Entered
Jan 19, 2011I am making an online form (literal form) that needs to have a certain function: when the user enters a 5-digit number, the form should automatically query the MS SQL DB and retrieve information associated to that number and populate other form elements (text boxes, etc.) accordingly.
So say the # was 12345 and in the DB, the record matching 12345 has name=Fred. So, when I enter 12345 into the form textbox, the name text box should be automatically populated with Fred in it.
If this is not easily achievable, I guess a submit button beside the 5-digit number text box can do.
I am still learning my way around ASP.NET and Visual Studio 2005, however I have ample experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, C/C++. The ASP.NET app is to be written in C#.
RenderAction Not Finding Action Method In Current Controller In Current Area?
Mar 15, 2010I'm creating an ASP.NET MVC 2 (RTM) project that uses areas. The Index action of the Home controller of one area needs to use RenderAction to generate a sub-section of the page. The action called is also defined in the same Home controller. So the call should just be:
<% Html.RenderAction("List") %>
However, I get an exception:A public action method 'List' was not found on controller 'RareBridge.Web.Areas.Events.Controllers.HomeController'.
Note that I'm not in the "Events" area! I'm in a completely different area. If I remove the "Events" home controller, then the exception still occurs but names a different controller (still not the one I want it to call).
I've also tried providing the controller name and area to the RenderAction method, but the same exception occurs. What is going on here?
BTW: I am using Autofac as my IoC container
Web Forms :: Find Current URL Of Page During Code Behind Submission (NOT Current Web App URL)
Aug 18, 2010I am looking for a way to figure out the current URL that the page is currently on (NOT what the asp.net page currently is, but where the CODE is at). ie. My web app is located at: [URL] my code is: String page = [URL]
String response = GetResponse(page); //basically the above code goes to the website [URL] and parses the HTML within it and brings it back and populates the variable string "response". But, sometimes the [URL] throws me a curve ball and redirects me to: [URL] I want to be able to use a try/catch to be able to "catch" the error of a different page: ie validateUser.aspx. So, I need to do to this: try
{
String page = [URL];
String response = GetResponse(page);
}
catch
{
//code to check the behind URL to see if [URL] is the URL OR IF [URL] is the current URL
}
understand I know how to find the URL of the current page the web app is on. I need to find the current page that threw the exception during the execution of the code behind.

Web Forms :: Get Name Of Current Page And Current Subroutine
Oct 17, 2010I am building in error-logging into my site, and want to be able to get hold of the current page name that the error occurred in, as well as the specific subroutine or function, to then pass to a VB.NET function. Is there anyway to get hold of this information without hard-coding the names manually? For example,
Dim strCurrentPageName = ???
Dim strCurrentRoutine = ???
MVC :: How To Add A Certain Route
Apr 5, 2010I want to do the following:

What must I do in order to only have Overview/Index be possible for my route?
MVC :: Why Do Route Values Not Get The New Value
Jul 11, 2010When I do an Html.RenderAction( action, controller, new { varName = value } ); if the original request had a parameter equal to varName, then the value is not changed in a render action.
Example:
1. Post to "C1/A1" with a string var _test = "abc"
2. Inside C1/A1 get some data and return a partial view
3. Inside the partial view I invoke an action on another controller. The action has an input variable with the same name and type (string _test) Html.RenderAction( "A2","C2", new {_test="fgh"});
4. the value in _test that arrives at C2/A2 is still "abc"
I've traced through it step by step, and the value used in the view render action call is correct, but in the next trace step, the value received at C2/A2 is incorrect.
If this is not an error, and creating a new route value to pass in render action is not the correct way to handle this, what is?
How To Access The Route
