Property Value

An Object instance.

When you add a UriTemplate to a UriTemplateTable you associate data with the template. This value is application specific; no particular semantics are associated with this value. When Match(Uri) is called and a match is found the data associated with the matching template is returned in the Data property.

The following code shows how to access the Data property.

Visual Basic
Dim prefix As New Uri("http://localhost/")

' Create some templates:
Dim weatherByCity As New UriTemplate("weather/ state}/ city}")
Dim weatherByState As New UriTemplate("weather/ state}")
Dim traffic As New UriTemplate("traffic/*")
Dim wildcard As New UriTemplate("*")

'Create a template table
Dim table As UriTemplateTable = New UriTemplateTable(prefix)

'Add the templates to the template table along with some associated data
table.KeyValuePairs.Add(New KeyValuePair(Of UriTemplate, Object)(weatherByCity, "weatherByCity"))
table.KeyValuePairs.Add(New KeyValuePair(Of UriTemplate, Object)(weatherByState, "weatherByState"))
table.KeyValuePairs.Add(New KeyValuePair(Of UriTemplate, Object)(traffic, "traffic"))

'Match a URI to a template
Dim candidateUri As New Uri("http://localhost/weather/WA/Redmond")
Dim results As UriTemplateMatch = table.MatchSingle(candidateUri)

If (results IsNot Nothing) Then

    'Get the data associated with the matching template
    Dim data As String = CType(results.Data, String)
    Console.WriteLine("Matching data is  0}", Data)
End If
C#
UriTemplate template = new UriTemplate("weather/{state}/{city}?forecast=today");
Uri baseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost");
Uri fullUri = new Uri("http://localhost/weather/WA/Seattle?forecast=today");

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

// Match a URI to a template
UriTemplateMatch results = template.Match(baseAddress, fullUri);
if (results != null)
{
    Object data = results.Data;
}
