public interface IHandleUrlForRewrite
Remarks

UrlRewritten

Gets a value indicating whether the URL was rewritten as a result of the TryHandleUrl method.

Declaration

true if URL was rewritten; otherwise, false.

Methods

TryHandleUrl(UrlRewriteContext, ref Object, ref CachedUrlHandler)

Tries to handle the URL gven in the context.

Declaration
bool TryHandleUrl(UrlRewriteContext context, ref object internalObject, ref CachedUrlHandler handler)
Parameters
Type Name Description
UrlRewriteContext context

The context for the rewrite. Note that the URL of the context may be modified.

System.Object internalObject

The internal object representation.

CachedUrlHandler handler

The cached handler.

Returns
Type Description
System.Boolean

True if the URL was recognized and handled, False otherwise.

Remarks

If this method returns False (URL not handled), then the context, internalObject and handler should be unaffected.

If the method returns True (URL handled), then UrlRewritten will indicate if the context.Url property has been modified. The method may optionally return a CachedUrlHandler in the handler parameter in this case as well.

Returning a non-null value in handler is how you indicate that you have want to cache expensive url lookups and reuse for subsequent calls.
