The following code example demonstrates how to create custom handler objects in response to a client request. The example has two parts:

  • A handler factory class.

  • A Web.config file excerpt.

The first part of the example shows how to create custom handler objects in response to a client request for a page named either abc.aspx or xyz.aspx. The handler factory class named hwf creates the appropriate handler object depending on the page requested.

No code example is currently available or this language may not be supported.

The second part of the example shows a Web.config file excerpt. To use the above handler factory, add the following lines to the Web.config file.

<configuration> 
  <system.web> 
    <httpHandlers> 
      <add verb="*" path="abc.aspx" type="test.MyFactory,HandlerFactoryTest" /> 
      <add verb="*" path="xyz.aspx" type="test.MyFactory,HandlerFactoryTest" /> 
    </httpHandlers> 
  </system.web>
</configuration>
