First off, you should never store the user’s credentials in a cookie. It’s incredibly insecure. The password will be passed with every request as well as being stored in plain text on the user’s machine. Second, don’t reinvent the wheel, especially when security is concerned, you’ll never get it right. ASP.Net already provides this functionality … Read more
I think I’ve found an answer. Buried deep in the jQuery Mobile documentation, there is information about setting the data-url on the div with data-role=”page”. When I do this, I get the nice jQuery Mobile AJAX stuff (page loading message, page transitions) AND I get the url in the browser updated correctly. Essentially, this is … Read more
If you do it at the end of Application_Start it will be too late, as WebApiConfig.Register has been called. The best way to resolve this is to use new initialization method by replacing in Global.asax : WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration); by GlobalConfiguration.Configure(WebApiConfig.Register);
You need to map requests for your XML files to TransferRequestHandler in web.config. Otherwise IIS will handle the request. Jon Galloway explains how to do this here. In summary, you add this element to location/system.webServer/handlers in your web.config: <add name=”XmlFileHandler” path=”*.xml” verb=”GET” type=”System.Web.Handlers.TransferRequestHandler” preCondition=”integratedMode,runtimeVersionv4.0″ />
You could add the following handler to the <handlers> section of your <system.webServer>: <add name=”ManagedDllExtension” path=”api/nav/*/*.dll” verb=”GET” type=”System.Web.Handlers.TransferRequestHandler” preCondition=”integratedMode,runtimeVersionv4.0″ /> This will make all requests containing .dll be served through the managed pipeline. Also notice how I have limited them only to the GET verb to limit the performance impact.
You cannot include the query string in the route. Try with a route like this: routes.MapRoute(“OpenCase”, “ABC/ABC{stepNo}”, new { controller = “ABC1”, action = “OpenCase” }); Then, on your controller add a method like this: public class ABC1 : Controller { public ActionResult OpenCase(string stepno, string key, string group) { // do stuff here return … Read more
You need to add a route to cover the case that has a user name. public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) { routes.IgnoreRoute(“{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}”); routes.MapRoute( name: “Username_Default”, url: “{username}/{controller}/{action}/{id}”, defaults: new { controller = “Home”, action = “Index”, id = UrlParameter.Optional }, constraints: new { username = new OwinUsernameConstraint() } ); routes.MapRoute( name: “Default”, url: “{controller}/{action}/{id}”, defaults: … Read more
I apologize in advance, this post strays a bit from what you asked, but all of this bubbled up when I read your question. WebAPI Matching Semantic The matching semantic used by (the default routes in) WebAPI is fairly simple. It matches the name of the action with the verb (verb = GET? look for … Read more
Try this: private void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) { routes.IgnoreRoute(“{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}”); routes.MapRoute(“default”, “{controller}/{action}/{id}”, new { action = “index”, id = “” }, // Register below the name of all the other controllers new { controller = @”^(account|support)$” }); routes.MapRoute(“home”, “{action}”, new { controller = “device”, action = “index” }); } e.g. /foo If foo is not a controller … Read more
You can create a custom route handler to do this. The actual route is a catch-all: routes.MapRoute( “Tree”, “Tree/{*path}”, new { controller = “Tree”, action = “Index” }) .RouteHandler = new TreeRouteHandler(); The tree handler looks at path, extracts the last part as action, and then redirects to the controller. The action part is also … Read more
