I would like to register an HttpHandler to include all subfolders of a root

  • 0

I would like to register an HttpHandler to include all subfolders of a root folder regardless of how far down they are nested. I would have expected the behavior with the below code to do just that but in fact it only includes items directly in the root folder.

<httpHandlers>   <add verb='*' path='root/*' type='HandlerType, Assembly' /> </httpHandlers>

I can of course register as below to include anything that is second tier, however have yet to encounter a way to just say anything below root.

<httpHandlers>   <add verb='*' path='root/*/*' type='HandlerType, Assembly' /> </httpHandlers>

This is something hat has been bugging me for quite a while and I would love to hear of a simple solution.

I would like to clarify that when I say ‘root’ I do not mean the root of the application and am not necessarily interested in sending all requests in the application to a module to be processed.

  1. Maybe you should use HttpModule instead of HttpHandler.
