Determines the difference between two Uri instances.
(in System.dll)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Function MakeRelativeUri ( _
uri As Uri _
) As Uri
Dim instance As Uri
Dim uri As Uri
Dim returnValue As Uri
returnValue = instance.MakeRelativeUri(uri)
public Uri MakeRelativeUri(
Uri uri
)
public:
Uri^ MakeRelativeUri(
Uri^ uri
)
public function MakeRelativeUri(
uri : Uri
) : Uri
Parameters
- uri
- Type: System..::.Uri
The URI to compare to the current URI.
Return Value
Type:
System..::.UriIf the hostname and scheme of this URI instance and toUri are the same, then this method returns a relative Uri that, when appended to the current URI instance, yields toUri.
If the hostname or scheme is different, then this method returns a Uri that represents the toUri parameter.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|
| InvalidOperationException | This instance represents a relative URI, and this property is valid only for absolute URIs. |
The following table shows the URI instance, toUri, and the results of calling MakeRelativeUri.
Current URI instance |
toUri
| Return value |
|---|
http://www.contoso.com/ | http://www.contoso.com/test/test.htm | test/test.htm |
http://www.contoso.com/test1/ | http://www.contoso.com/ | ../ |
http://www.contoso.com:8000/ | http://www.contoso.com/test/test.htm | http://www.contoso.com/test/test.htm |
http://username@www.contoso.com/ | http://www.contoso.com/test1/test1.txt | test1/test1.txt |
User information, if present in the URI, is ignored.
The following example creates 2 Uri instances. The difference in the path information is written to the console.
' Create a base Uri.
Dim address1 As New Uri("http://www.contoso.com/")
' Create a new Uri from a string.
Dim address2 As New Uri("http://www.contoso.com/index.htm?date=today")
' Determine the relative Uri.
Console.WriteLine("The difference is {0}", address1.MakeRelativeUri(address2))
End Sub 'SampleMakeRelative
// Create a base Uri.
Uri address1 = new Uri("http://www.contoso.com/");
// Create a new Uri from a string.
Uri address2 = new Uri("http://www.contoso.com/index.htm?date=today");
// Determine the relative Uri.
Console.WriteLine("The difference is {0}", address1.MakeRelativeUri(address2));
// Create a base Uri.
Uri^ address1 = gcnew Uri( "http://www.contoso.com/" );
// Create a new Uri from a string.
Uri^ address2 = gcnew Uri( "http://www.contoso.com/index.htm?date=today" );
// Determine the relative Uri.
Console::WriteLine( "The difference is {0}", address1->MakeRelativeUri( address2 ) );
