I am testing ASP MVC routes . I am having an issue with attribute routes in ASP MVC 5.1 When I have a controller like this: public class FooController : Controller { [Route("foo")] [HttpGet] public ActionResult Get() { .... } [Route("foo")] [HttpPost] public ActionResult Post() { .... } } Then in order to test which route matches a particular request, I call routes.GetRouteData . I get a System.Web.Routing.RouteData that contains the route as well as values that should say which controller and action are matched. The problem is that this route is now an instance of RouteCollectionRoute this

My scenario is as follows: a venue can be part of multiple categories and users can also add filters on multiple category types, so my URLs now are like: /venues/beaches/boats/themeparks (this will display all venues that are beaches AND boats AND themeparks) /venues/beaches/boats /venues etc. So the number of different venue types (beaches, boats, themeparks etc) is both dynamic AND optional. I decided to go with URLRouting so I can start to get the different values in codebehind via Request.GetFriendlyUrlSegments() I installed https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.AspNet.FriendlyUrls.Core

I have an MVC 2 application that should always give a 'nice' 404 page. However currently I get a low level .Net one: "Server Error in '/sitename' Application..." I have a base controller that has a NotFound action that will render the nice 404 page. Missing actions are handled: protected override void HandleUnknownAction(string actionName) { this.NotFound(actionName).ExecuteResult(this.ControllerContext); } So a visit to {site}/ValidController/NotAnAction gets routed correctly. However a visit to {site}/NotAController doesn't. I have routes set up with a catch all: routes.MapRoute( "MVC routes

I have site culture in URLs like this: routes.MapRoute( "Default", "{language}/{controller}/{action}/{id}", languageDefaults, languageConstraints) And it works like a charm with a little help from custom MvcHttpHandler that sets current thread's UI culture on every request based on route value. My problem is how do I automatically add the language route value from current request to all outgoing links? E.g. when page /EN/Foo/Bar is requested, I would like this <%=Html.ActionLink( "example link", MVC.Home.Index()) %> To automatically generate the same result as this: <%=Html.ActionLink(

How can I get the controller name of a relative Url, using the routes I have defined in Global.asax? Example: if I have a route defiend like this: routes.MapRoute( "Default", // Route name "{language}/{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "", language = "en" } from the string "~/en/products/list" I want to have products (the controller name). Is there any existing method that already does this? Laurel.Wu See Stephen Walther's blog post ASP.NET MVC Tip #13 – Unit Test Your Custom Routes The project MvcFakes has an old System.Web

A new property to RouteCollection was added with .NET Framework 4.5: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.routing.routecollection.lowercaseurls.aspx This works great, until you add an Area to your project. All Urls are propercase again. Any ideas why this happens? It's simple to reproduce: Create new MVC 4 Internet Application (.NET 4.5) Start RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes function with: routes.LowercaseUrls = true; Run the project and you'll see all generated Urls are now lowercase. Add an Area to the project. Run the project again and you'll see all Urls are propercase again! It
