HttpServerUtilityBase Class

Serves as the base class for classes that provide helper methods for processing Web requests.

System.Object
  System.Web.HttpServerUtilityBase
    System.Web.HttpServerUtilityWrapper

Namespace:  System.Web
Assembly:  System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
public abstract class HttpServerUtilityBase

The HttpServerUtilityBase type exposes the following members.

  Name Description
Protected method HttpServerUtilityBase Initializes the class for use by an inherited class instance. This constructor can only be called by an inherited class.
Top
  Name Description
Public property MachineName When overridden in a derived class, gets the server's computer name.
Public property ScriptTimeout When overridden in a derived class, gets or sets the request time-out value in seconds.
Top
  Name Description
Public method ClearError When overridden in a derived class, clears the most recent exception.
Public method CreateObject(String) When overridden in a derived class, creates a server instance of a COM object that is identified by the object's programmatic identifier (ProgID).
Public method CreateObject(Type) When overridden in a derived class, creates a server instance of a COM object that is identified by the object's type.
Public method CreateObjectFromClsid When overridden in a derived class, creates a server instance of a COM object that is identified by the object's class identifier (CLSID).
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method Execute(String) When overridden in a derived class, executes the handler for the specified virtual path in the context of the current process.
Public method Execute(String, Boolean) When overridden in a derived class, executes the handler for the specified virtual path in the context of the current process and specifies whether to clear the QueryString and Form collections.
Public method Execute(String, TextWriter) When overridden in a derived class, executes the handler for the specified virtual path in the context of the current process, using a TextWriter instance to capture output from the executed handler.
Public method Execute(IHttpHandler, TextWriter, Boolean) When overridden in a derived class, executes the specified handler in the context of the current process, using a TextWriter instance to capture output from the executed handler and a value that specifies whether to clear the QueryString and Form collections.
Public method Execute(String, TextWriter, Boolean) When overridden in a derived class, executes the handler for the specified virtual path in the context of the current request, using a TextWriter instance to capture output from the page and a value that indicates whether to clear the QueryString and Form collections.
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetLastError When overridden in a derived class, returns the most recent exception.
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method HtmlDecode(String) When overridden in a derived class, decodes an HTML-encoded string and returns the decoded string.
Public method HtmlDecode(String, TextWriter) When overridden in a derived class, decodes an HTML-encoded string and returns the results in a stream.
Public method HtmlEncode(String) When overridden in a derived class, HTML-encodes a string and returns the encoded string.
Public method HtmlEncode(String, TextWriter) When overridden in a derived class, HTML-encodes a string and sends the resulting output to an output stream.
Public method MapPath When overridden in a derived class, returns the physical file path that corresponds to the specified virtual path on the Web server.
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method Transfer(String) When overridden in a derived class, terminates execution of the current process and starts execution of a page or handler that is specified with a URL.
Public method Transfer(IHttpHandler, Boolean) When overridden in a derived class, terminates execution of the current process and starts execution of a new request, using a custom HTTP handler and a value that specifies whether to clear the QueryString and Form collections.
Public method Transfer(String, Boolean) When overridden in a derived class, terminates execution of the current page and starts execution of a different page or handler by using the specified URL and a value that specifies whether to clear the QueryString and Form collections.
Public method TransferRequest(String) When overridden in a derived class, asynchronously executes the end point at the specified URL.
Public method TransferRequest(String, Boolean) When overridden in a derived class, asynchronously executes the endpoint at the specified URL and specifies whether to clear the QueryString and Form collections.
Public method TransferRequest(String, Boolean, String, NameValueCollection) When overridden in a derived class, asynchronously executes the endpoint at the specified URL by using the specified HTTP method and headers.
Public method UrlDecode(String) When overridden in a derived class, decodes a URL-encoded string and returns the decoded string.
Public method UrlDecode(String, TextWriter) When overridden in a derived class, decodes a URL-encoded string and sends the resulting output to a stream.
Public method UrlEncode(String) When overridden in a derived class, URL-encodes a string and returns the encoded string.
Public method UrlEncode(String, TextWriter) When overridden in a derived class, URL-encodes a string and sends the resulting output to a stream.
Public method UrlPathEncode When overridden in a derived class, URL-encodes the path section of a URL string.
Public method UrlTokenDecode When overridden in a derived class, decodes a URL string token into an equivalent byte array by using base64-encoded digits.
Public method UrlTokenEncode When overridden in a derived class, encodes a byte array into an equivalent string representation by using base64 digits, which makes it usable for transmission on the URL.

The HttpServerUtilityBase class is an abstract class that contains the same members as the HttpServerUtility class. The HttpServerUtilityBase class enables you to create derived classes that are like the HttpServerUtility class, but that you can customize and that work outside the ASP.NET pipeline. When you perform unit testing, you typically use a derived class to implement members with customized behavior that fulfills the scenario you are testing.

The HttpServerUtilityWrapper class derives from the HttpServerUtilityBase class. The HttpServerUtilityWrapper class serves as a wrapper for the HttpServerUtility class. At run time, you typically use an instance of the HttpServerUtilityWrapper class to call members of the HttpServerUtility object.

.NET Framework

Supported in: 4, 3.5 SP1

Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2

The .NET Framework does not support all versions of every platform. For a list of the supported versions, see .NET Framework System Requirements.
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
