Chapter 19 Custom Handlers 421 FIGURE 19-3 IIS has a handler mapping for Trace.axd. If you look through the default web.confi g fi le a bit more, you’ll see some other critical ASP.NET handlers. As you might expect, source code is banned explicitly from normal clients by default. Notice that fi les such as *.cs, *.confi g, and *.vb are handled by the Forbidden handler. If you try to look at source code via a Web browser, ASP.NET returns the page shown in Figure 19-4 by default. FIGURE 19-4 What happens when you try to view forbidden content 422 Part IV Diagnostics and Plumbing Remember that ASP.NET’s confi guration is very malleable and that you may choose to let clients see your source code by one of two means. You may remove the source code extension to ASP.NET mappings within IIS. Alternatively, you may write your own source code viewer handlers and declare them in your application’s web.confi g fi le. These handlers plug into the pipeline by implementing IHttpHandler. Let’s take a look at this key interface. IHttpHandler Here it is. Shield your eyes while you look at Listing 19-2 (just kidding—it’s not a very big interface). LISTING 19-2 The IHttpHandler Interface public interface IHttpHandler { void ProcessRequest(HttpContext ctx); bool IsReusable {get;} } There’s really not much to it, is there? The interface includes a method named ProcessRequest and a property named IsReusable. If the handler instance can be used multiple times, then IsReusable should return true. If the handler generally returns static content, it’s probably reusable. If the content is dynamic, it’s probably not reusable. The heart of the handler is the ProcessRequest method that includes a single parameter: the current HttpContext. Once a request fi nally arrives at the handler (through the ProcessRequest method), ProcessRequest can literally do anything to respond to the request. The Trace.axd handler responds to a GET request by listing the requests being tracked by the runtime. The forbidden handler responds by tossing a roadblock in the processing pipeline so the client can’t see the forbidden resource. A custom Web service might respond to the request by parsing the XML payload, constructing a call stack, and making a call to an internal method. Implementing IHttpHandler is simple—at least from the architectural standpoint. The ProcessRequest method takes a single parameter—the current HttpContext. However, the code inside ProcessRequest is free to do just about anything, possibly making the internal processing quite complex! The following example illustrates taking over the entire form- rendering process to display a list of choices within a combo box, allowing the end client to select from the choices, and fi nally rendering the chosen item. Writing a Custom Handler 1. Create a project named CustomHandlers. Chapter 19 Custom Handlers 423 2. Add a new class library subproject to the CustomHandlers Web site (just as you did when you created an HTTP module). Name the project CustomFormHandlerLib. The name of the class it generates for you is Class1. Rename the fi le CustomFormHandler.cs and the class CustomFormHandler. 3. The library generated by Visual Studio comes without any knowledge of the ASP.NET classes. Add a reference to the System.Web assembly. 4. To turn the CustomFormHandler class into an eligible handler, add the IHttpHandler interface to the inheritance list and implement ProcessRequest. Add a method named ManageForm that takes a parameter of type HttpContext. ManageForm should write out <html>, <body>, and <form> tags through Response.Write. Write the question “Hello there. What’s cool about .NET?” followed by a line break. Next, write a <select> tag and set the name attribute to “Feature.” Then write several .NET features surrounded by <option> tags. This will produce a drop-down list box on the client’s browser. Write out an <input> tag. The tag’s type attribute should be submit, its name attribute should be “Lookup,” and its value attribute should be “Lookup.” Next, look up the new value for the “Feature” selection tag within the HttpContext’s Request.Params collection. If the value is not null, then the end user selected something. Write the value provided by the “Feature” selection tag. Finally, write out closing tags. That is, </form>, </body>, and </ html> tags. Have the ProcessRequest method call the ManageForm method like so: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using System.Web; public class CustomFormHandler : IHttpHandler { public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext ctx) { ManageForm(ctx); } public void ManageForm(HttpContext context) { context.Response.Write("<html><body><form>"); context.Response.Write( "<h2>Hello there. What's cool about .NET?</h2>"); context.Response.Write( "<select name='Feature'>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> Strong typing</option>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> Managed code</option>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> Language agnosticism</option>"); 424 Part IV Diagnostics and Plumbing context.Response.Write( "<option> Better security model</option>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> Threading and async delegates</option>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> XCOPY deployment</option>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> Reasonable HTTP handling framework</option>"); context.Response.Write("</select>"); context.Response.Write("</br>"); context.Response.Write( "<input type=submit name='Lookup' value='Lookup'></input>"); context.Response.Write("</br>"); if (context.Request.Params["Feature"] != null) { context.Response.Write("Hi, you picked: "); context.Response.Write( context.Request.Params["Feature"]); context.Response.Write( " as your favorite feature.</br>"); } context.Response.Write("</form></body></html>"); } public bool IsReusable { get { return true; } } } The code within the ProcessRequest will render a form element and a select element that renders a form that can be submitted by the browser. When the form is submitted back to the server, the parameter collection will contain a Features element. The code examines the parameter collection to see if it references a feature, and it displays the feature if it’s been selected. 5. The class library you just created deposits its output in the project directory. In order for ASP.NET to use the page, the resulting executable needs to live in the application directory’s bin subdirectory. You can do this by adding the CustomHandlerLib.dll as a project reference to the Web site. Click the right mouse button on the Web site project within the Solution Explorer and add a new project reference. Navigate to the CustomFormHandlerLib project’s bin directory and choose the CustomFormHandlerLib.dll fi le. 6. Now update web.confi g so that it uses the handler when clients request the CustomFormHandler resource. If you don’t already have a web.confi g in the project, add one. Then insert an httpHandlers section that points requests for the CustomFormHandler to the new CustomFormHandler class. Chapter 19 Custom Handlers 425 <configuration > <appSettings/> <connectionStrings/> <system.web> <httpHandlers> <! There will be some other entries here > <add path="*.cstm" verb="*" type="CustomFormHandlerLib.CustomFormHandler, CustomFormHandlerLib" validate="true" /> </httpHandlers> </system.web> </configuration> Note If this site were running under IIS, you would need to tell IIS about the new fi le types to be handled by the CustomFormHandler. If you decide to run this application under IIS (instead of the Visual Studio Web server), you may confi gure IIS to run your handler by doing the following. Open IIS and drill down to the CustomHandler virtual directory. Open the Features View and lo- cate the Handler Mappings icon. Double-click on the Handler Mappings icon to bring up the Handler Mappings page. 426 Part IV Diagnostics and Plumbing Click the right mouse button in the middle of the Handler Mappings page to bring up the local menu. Select Add Managed Handler. Type in an extension you’d like to have mapped to the custom handler. Then assign a handler. IIS will look at all the handlers available to your application (including the ones local to your application). Select the handler from the drop-down list, give the handler an alias, and you’ll be able to surf to that fi le type to invoke the handler. Chapter 19 Custom Handlers 427 7. Finally, create a blank Text fi le named CustomHandler.cstm to your project. You can use the fi le with that extension to surf to the handler. 8. Surf to the customhandler.cstm resource and ASP.NET will invoke the custom handler you just created. Of course, most of this processing could be handled more easily by setting up a Web form. However, this example shows the fl exibility of the ASP.NET handler architecture. It should also give you more appreciation for the Web form and custom controls machinery within ASP.NET. Handlers and Session State In Chapter 14, we looked at session state. Session state works automatically within the context of System.Web.UI.Page. However, custom handlers need to turn on the ability to use session state deliberately. The .NET architecture uses an interesting idiom known as marker interfaces. Marker interfaces are empty interfaces (without any methods or properties defi ned). Their sole purpose is to signal the runtime as to various aspects of the application. For example, ASP.NET runtime of- ten uses them to turn on and off various features. When the runtime detects a marker interface as part of an object’s class hierarchy, the runtime can bring into play certain features. For a handler to use session state, it must have the System.Web.SessionState.IRequiresSessionState interface in its inheritance list. That way the runtime will know to load and store session state at the beginning and end of each request. Listing 19-3 shows a handler with session state enabled. LISTING 19-3 Example HTTP Handler That Accesses Session State using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using System.Web; using System.Web.SessionState; public class HandlerWithSessionState : IHttpHandler, IRequiresSessionState { public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext ctx) { string strData = (string)ctx.Session["SomeSessionData"]; if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(strData)) { strData = "This goes in session state"; ctx.Session["SomeSessionData"] = strData; } ctx.Response.Write("This was in session state: " + strData); } 428 Part IV Diagnostics and Plumbing public bool IsReusable { get { return true; } } } Generic Handlers (ASHX Files) Just as ASPX fi les can be compiled on the fl y (“just in time”), so can handlers. Generic handlers have an extension of ASHX. They’re equivalent to custom handlers written in C# or Visual Basic in that they contain classes that fully implement IHttpHandler. They’re convenient in the same way ASPX fi les are convenient. You simply surf to them and they’re compiled automatically. The following example illustrates the CustomFormHandler implemented as a “generic handler.” Writing a generic handler 1. Add a “generic” handler to the Web site. Go to the Solution Explorer, click the right mouse button on the CustomHandler Web site node and select Add New Item. Select Generic Handler from the templates. Name the handler CustomFormHandler.ashx. 2. Visual Studio generates a handler that includes a stubbed-out ProcessRequest method and a completed IsReusable property. Write a function to emit the form-handling code (you can borrow it from the last exercise), and call the method from inside Chapter 19 Custom Handlers 429 ProcessRequest. Borrow the code from the earlier example to implement the handler. Replace the stubbed-out method and property with real implementations. <%@ WebHandler Language="C#" Class="CustomFormHandler" %> using System.Web; public class CustomFormHandler : IHttpHandler { public void ProcessRequest (HttpContext context) { ManageForm(context); } public void ManageForm(HttpContext context) { context.Response.Write("<html><body><form>"); context.Response.Write( "<h2>Hello there. What's cool about .NET?</h2>"); context.Response.Write("<select name='Feature'>"); context.Response.Write("<option> Strong typing</option>"); context.Response.Write("<option> Managed code</option>"); context.Response.Write("<option> Language agnosticism</option>"); context.Response.Write("<option> Better security model</option>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> Threading and async delegates</option>"); context.Response.Write("<option> XCOPY deployment</option>"); context.Response.Write( "<option> Reasonable HTTP handling framework</option>"); context.Response.Write("</select>"); context.Response.Write("</br>"); context.Response.Write( "<input type=submit name='Lookup' value='Lookup'></input>"); context.Response.Write("</br>"); if (context.Request.Params["Feature"] != null) { context.Response.Write("Hi, you picked: "); context.Response.Write(context.Request.Params["Feature"]); context.Response.Write(" as your favorite feature.</br>"); } context.Response.Write("</form></body></html>"); } public bool IsReusable { get { return false; } } } 430 Part IV Diagnostics and Plumbing 3. Browse to the CustomFormHandler.ashx fi le. It should work in just the same way as the handler implemented in the CustomFormHandler class (that you wrote in the fi rst example): The advantage of using the generic handler is twofold. First, it’s usually much more convenient to generate a simple handler than it is to create a whole new assembly to handle the request. Second, you don’t need to confi gure either web.confi g or IIS (when it comes time to deploy). That is, ASP.NET and IIS already understand what to do when encountering resource requests with the extension of .ashx. Installing ASP.NET places those when mapping into IIS. However, ASHX fi les have the same limitations as ASPX and ASCX fi les in terms of their place in an ASP.NET project. Simple generic handlers go with the project. That is, for the handler to work, it must accompany the whole project. Alternatively, custom handlers deployed as separate assemblies may be deployed and shared among the enterprise as Global assemblies (that is, strongly named assemblies placed in the Global Assembly Cache). Summary ASP.NET includes a number of built-in classes to handle most kinds of requests. For exam ple, ASP.NET includes UI handlers (System.Web.UI.Page and System.Web.UI.Control).
