HttpResponse.RedirectToRoute Method (String, Object)

.NET Framework (current version)

Redirects a request to a new URL by using route parameter values and a route name.

Namespace: System.Web
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)

Syntax

Public Sub RedirectToRoute (
	routeName As String,
	routeValues As Object
)

Parameters

routeName: Type: System.String
The name of the route.

routeValues: Type: System.Object
The route parameter values.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
InvalidOperationException	No route corresponds to the specified route parameters.
HttpException	Redirection was attempted after the HTTP headers had been sent.

Remarks

This method is provided for coding convenience. It is equivalent to calling the Redirect(String, Boolean) method with the second parameter set to false.

This method converts the object that is passed in routeValues to a System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary object by using the RouteValueDictionary.RouteValueDictionary(Object) constructor. The RouteCollection.GetVirtualPath method is then called to determine the URL.

ASP.NET performs the redirection by returning a 302 HTTP status code.

Examples

The following example shows how to call this method to redirect to a route that is named Product and that has parameters that are named productid and category.

Response.RedirectToRoute("Product",
  New With {.productid = "1", .category = "widgets"})
