UriTemplate.Match Method

Attempts to match a URI to a UriTemplate.

Namespace:  System
Assembly:  System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
public UriTemplateMatch Match(
	Uri baseAddress,
	Uri candidate
)

Parameters

baseAddress
Type: System.Uri
The base address.
candidate
Type: System.Uri
The Uri to match against the template.

Return Value

Type: System.UriTemplateMatch
An instance.

If the match is successful the UriTemplateMatch is populated with the URI segments, variable values, query string values, and wildcard segments from the candidate URI. If the match is unsuccessful, null is returned.

The following example shows how to call the Match(Uri, Uri) method.


UriTemplate template = new UriTemplate("weather/{state}/{city}?forecast={day}");
Uri prefix = new Uri("http://localhost");

Uri fullUri = new Uri("http://localhost/weather/Washington/Redmond?forecast=today");
UriTemplateMatch results = template.Match(prefix, fullUri);

Console.WriteLine("Matching {0} to {1}", template.ToString(), fullUri.ToString());

if (results != null)
{
    foreach (string variableName in results.BoundVariables.Keys)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("   {0}: {1}", variableName, results.BoundVariables[variableName]);
    }
}
