StaticSiteMapProvider.BuildSiteMap Method
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
When overridden in a derived class, loads the site map information from persistent storage and builds it in memory.
public:
abstract System::Web::SiteMapNode ^ BuildSiteMap();
public abstract System.Web.SiteMapNode BuildSiteMap ();
abstract member BuildSiteMap : unit -> System.Web.SiteMapNode
Public MustOverride Function BuildSiteMap () As SiteMapNode
Returns
The root SiteMapNode of the site map navigation structure.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to implement the BuildSiteMap method to retrieve data from a Microsoft Access database and build SiteMapNode objects that are added to the ChildNodes collection of the root site map node. Finally, the RootNode property is returned to the caller.
This code example is part of a larger example provided for the StaticSiteMapProvider class.
// Build an in-memory representation from persistent
// storage, and return the root node of the site map.
virtual SiteMapNode ^ BuildSiteMap() override

// Since the SiteMap class is static, make sure that it is
// not modified while the site map is built.
System::Threading::Monitor::Enter( this );
try
{
// If there is no initialization, this method is being
// called out of order.
if ( !IsInitialized )
{
throw gcnew Exception( "BuildSiteMap called incorrectly." );
}
// If there is no root node, then there is no site map.
if ( nullptr == rootNode )
{
// Start with a clean slate
Clear();
// Select the root node of the site map from Microsoft Access.
int rootNodeId = -1;

// Create a SiteMapNode that references the current StaticSiteMapProvider.

Remarks
The BuildSiteMap method is the one abstract member of the StaticSiteMapProvider class. The BuildSiteMap method is called to load and build the site map node from persistent storage. When you implement the BuildSiteMap method, ensure that it is thread-safe, because multiple concurrent page requests can result indirectly in multiple calls to load site map information.
Notes to Implementers
When overriding the BuildSiteMap() method in a derived class, be sure to normalize the URLs of SiteMapNode objects that you add to your site map provider, so that the FindSiteMapNode(String) method can retrieve a site map node regardless of whether the URL for the site map node is supplied as an absolute virtual path or application relative path. Site map provider implementers using the AddNode method should normalize any URLs before storing SiteMapNode objects in the internal hash tables on behalf of the site map provider.
Security trimming behavior is included in the SiteMapProvider and StaticSiteMapProvider class implementations. However, for security trimming to function in derived classes, you must set the Roles property of any SiteMapNode objects that you create while building a site map provider when you override the BuildSiteMap() method.
