global.asax code

Hi,

In DW10 I have access to the Startup.cs file where I can configure my whole project, use filters, middlewares, configure dependency injection containers, error handlers, generate swagger files, all that standart stuff that each and every web project needs.

And then I open DW9 projec and I cannot do any of that because there's no access to the glabal.asax file. And that file is the place where all that configuration ususally goes. And I really cannot see any single reason why.

Is there any hack/workaround around this? Maybe there's some repo where I could see the original glabal.asax code so I could just put it my project and replace the defulat one and start extending it with stuff I actually need?

Hi Karol

You can deploy your own version of the global.asax file - overwrite the Global.asax file with your own version and proxy into DW - this is what DW does:

using System;
using System.Web;
using Dynamicweb.Frontednd;

public class Global : HttpApplication
{
    void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Application_Start(sender, e);
    }

    void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Session_Start(sender, e);
    }

    void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Application_BeginRequest(sender, e);
    }

    void Application_AuthenticateRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Application_AuthenticateRequest(sender, e);
    }

    void Application_OnPreRequestHandlerExecute(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Application_OnPreRequestHandlerExecute(sender, e);
    }

    void Application_EndRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Application_EndRequest(sender, e);
    }

    void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Application_Error(sender, e);
    }

    void Session_End(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Session_End(sender, e);
    }

    void Application_End(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        GlobalAsaxHandler.Application_End(sender, e);
    }
}

Hi Karol,

In DW9 you can also use notifications for different application lifecycle events. Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Application contains several notifications which you can use.

using Dynamicweb;

namespace Dynamicweb.Examples.Notifications.Standard
{
    [Dynamicweb.Extensibility.Notifications.Subscribe(Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Application.AfterDynamicwebStart)]
    public class ApplicationStartObserver : Dynamicweb.Extensibility.Notifications.NotificationSubscriber
    {
        public override void OnNotify(string notification, Dynamicweb.Extensibility.Notifications.NotificationArgs args)
        {
            if (args == null)
                return;

            if (!(args is Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Application.AfterDynamicwebStartArgs))
                return;

            Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Application.AfterDynamicwebStartArgs item = (Dynamicweb.Notifications.Standard.Application.AfterDynamicwebStartArgs)args;

            //Add code here

        }
    }
}

Alternatively, you can register an implementation of IHttpModule.
