I'm embarrassed to ask this question, but not sure what the syntax is to call a URL from within a controller (not associated with the application).
The reason I need to do this is because I am sharing authentication with another webforms app and would like to clear out the session variables before rerouting to that other URL. I'm just not sure of the syntax to route from an Action method to a URL like www.microsoft.com?
with a catch all route, how would you get the url into the params of the controller action?

I'm using a custom route to create the following URL (http://mysite/subscriber/12345) where 12345 is the subscriber number. I want it to run the ShowAll action in the Subscriber controller. My route is firing and using Phil's route debugger, when I pass in the above url, the route debugger shows ID as 12345.
My controller is accepting an int as subscriberID. When it fires, the controller throws the error "The parameters dictionary contains a null entry for parameter 'id' of non-nullable type 'System.Int32". Why does the route debugger show a value and the controller doesn't see it?
Here's my route (first one is the culprit)
routes.MapRoute(
"SubscriberAll",
"subscriber/{id}",
new { controller = "Subscriber", action = "ShowAll", id=0 },
new { id = @"d+" } //confirm numeric
);
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
I'm getting a null in the ShowAll action? Here is the action method signature:
public ActionResult ShowAll(int id)
I have two different controllers, say controllerA and controllerB, Now from within controllerA I have to redirect with some parameters to controllerB and inside controllerA i wrote RedirectToAction("ControllerBAction", new { keywords = text }); How do I define the routes in global.asax.cs?
View 1 RepliesSo I have a controller called EmployeeController, and all the Views are in /Employee.
I'd like to create a route so that the EmployeeController will use /Employees and /Employees/Add instead of /Employee and /Employee/Add.
I keep finding articles about how to change the route to go to different actions.
I tried to mix asp.net 4 webfrom and ASp.Net MVC 3. I add required lines in webconfig, but I've issues implementing route in global.asax
Currently I use several routes for webfroms. routs template are like below
routes.MapPageRoute("Node", _
"article/sport/{nID}/", _
"~/article/articleview.aspx")
I encounter error, when I add below lines to global.asax
routes.MapRoute( _
"Defaultss", _
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", _
New With {.controller = "Home", .action = "Index", .id = UrlParameter.Optional} _
)
I want to know how could I mix ASp.Net MVC routes with webforms routes.
when i run the app i got this error
A route named 'Admin_default' is already in the route collection. Route names must be unique.
Parameter name: name
this is my AdminAreaRegistration

UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and Iterative Development, that follows the UP(Unified Process). It uses a Grasp Controller pattern to interact with domain classes by some methods like NewSale(), AddNewItemToSale() and CloseSale. In windows form, I can instantiate a object of this class in the UI and then use its methods to perform the actions. This works well in Client apps, but when I use asp.net mvc, I cannot find a way to instantiate an object (one for each user) that was always visible for a Controller (MVC). I cannot insert as an attribute inside Controller because it always create a new one.
View 1 RepliesI 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
Was 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?
my MVC2 delete and only my delete controller is refusing to return any class information. Its really similar to my edit function and the views are all auto-generated so I don't see the problem.

I have a simple model where a Person has Gifts. I have a view which is a list of Gifts belonging to one Person.
My problem is with the Create action for a new Gift. I want it to default to the PersonID that we are already viewing the list of Gifts for. I tried simply passing the last PersonID (they are all the same)
Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create", new { id = Model.Last().PersonID }) which works fine if there is already at least one Gift for that person but if this is the first Gift I don't have a value.
My Gift List controller knows the PersonID I want to pass but the view doesn't.
How do I pass this PersonID from my Gift List controller to my Gift Create controller via the Gift List view? Or is there a better way to do this?
I have a filter on my MVC web site. I display some records in a few different controller actions but when moving from one action to another I want to apply those filter values.
How can I persist values from controller to controller?
Should I use Session? TempData?
I am using Structure Map for IOC.
Maybe I could have a class that contains a Property for each Session Value that I use in my application and inject it on the controllers that need session?
How do you get the current action / controller name in a controller or class?
i can't show it in my view but that's not what i want.

But RedirectToAction returns RediretToRouteResult
Say I have several Areas that are baed on user roles.Differnet roles have different functionality, but also have some "shared" functionality like say "Payments"Now, I created a PaymentController (and it's views for listing, creating messages) in Shared (not an area) and it works fine.
Would it be possible (and how?) to create a PaymentsController class in one of the Areas, have that inherit the PaymentController Class in Shared?
If I can do this, I can successfully share common functionality across areas, and at the same time extend the derived controller to include some 'area specific' functionality to common shared controllers. (Such as the "REturn to xxxx" text and route of the returnurl, which are a bit more complicated than I just made it sound)
I want to do the following:
routes.MapRoute("testwithoutcontroller", "Overview/Index/{year}", new {year = 2010});
But it fails when I call Overview/Index/2010 and gives me this error:
The RouteData must contain an item named 'controller' with a non-empty string value.
What must I do in order to only have Overview/Index be possible for my route?

View 5 RepliesWhen 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?
I'm using ASP.Net 4 URL routing on a web forms site.

I have made an asp.net mvc 3 application with an area called blog. I want to route this area to my subdomain blog.mywebsite.com. How can I achieve this?
How do I need to define my route? Do I have to configure the DNS?
Currently I just use the default area route. I can access my blog area for now at this way.
