        AreaPartialViewLocationFormats = Filter(base.AreaPartialViewLocationFormats);
        AreaViewLocationFormats = Filter(base.AreaViewLocationFormats);
        FileExtensions = Filter(base.FileExtensions);
        MasterLocationFormats = Filter(base.MasterLocationFormats);
        PartialViewLocationFormats = Filter(base.PartialViewLocationFormats);
        ViewLocationFormats = Filter(base.ViewLocationFormats);
    }

    private string[] Filter(string[] source)
    {
        return source.Where(
            s =>
                s.Contains(_extension)).ToArray();
    }
