Hi Steve,

What I would try is:

1. Use the configuration for extensionless urls.

2. Create a text file Default.ashx at /myapp/Default.ashx with the contents:

<%@ WebHandler Language="C#"  Class="yournamespace.yourhandlerclass" %>

3. Create a text file at /Setup/Routes/MyRoutes.config with contents like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
  <Routes>
    <Route name="MyHandlerRoute" routeUrl="myapp/{*}" virtualPath="~/myapp/Default.ashx">
    </Route>
  </Routes>

Hopefully that will work, I'm just theorizing, you can also see other examples of route configuration in comments in /Setup/Routes/mojoRoutes.config

This is some routing plumbing implemented for future use but not yet used in mojoPortal.

Hope that helps,

Joe

Hi Steve,

From what I've read it is best not to use routing with an HttpHandler, but it is very easy to make it handle all requests for urls that start with a folder name like /myapp.

1. Use the configuration for extensionless urls as previously mentioned.

2. Create a class that implements IHttpHandler

Example I tested with:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;

namespace mojoPortal.Web.myapp
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for MyAppHandler 
    /// </summary>
    public class MyAppHandler : IHttpHandler
    {

        public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
        {
            context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
            context.Response.Write("You requested " + context.Request.Url.ToString());
        }

        public bool IsReusable
        {
            get
            {
                return false;
            }
        }
    }
}

3. Add a handler mapping in Web.config in <system.webServer><handlers> like this:

<add name="MyAppHandler" verb="*" path="myapp/*" type="mojoPortal.Web.myapp.MyAppHandler, mojoPortal.Web" preCondition="integratedMode"/>

Note that if you are running in a sub directory you may need the subdirectory as part of the path, I'm testing with a root site running at loclahost bbut if you are running under loclahost/mojoportal or some other sub folder then you may need to make the path like mojoportal/myapp/*

Your type would be your namespace.yourclass, yourassembly, I tested directly in mojoPortal.Web but you would use your own custom project.

I can request any url like http://localhost/myapp/foo or http://localhost/myapp/foo.png or foo.aspx etc, and the handler always handles the request, in my example it just writes the requested url.

Hope that helps,

Joe
