public:
 System::Web::IHttpHandler ^ GetHandler(System::Web::HttpContext ^ context, System::String ^ requestType, System::String ^ url, System::String ^ pathTranslated);

public System.Web.IHttpHandler GetHandler (System.Web.HttpContext context, string requestType, string url, string pathTranslated);

abstract member GetHandler : System.Web.HttpContext * string * string * string -> System.Web.IHttpHandler

Public Function GetHandler (context As HttpContext, requestType As String, url As String, pathTranslated As String) As IHttpHandler

Parameters

context: HttpContext

An instance of the HttpContext class that provides references to intrinsic server objects (for example, Request, Response, Session, and Server) used to service HTTP requests.

requestType: String

The HTTP data transfer method (GET or POST) that the client uses.

url: String

The RawUrl of the requested resource.

pathTranslated: String

The PhysicalApplicationPath to the requested resource.

Returns

IHttpHandler

A new IHttpHandler object that processes the request.

Examples

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.

// Name this C# file HandlerFactoryTest.cs and compile it with the
// command line: csc /t:Library /r:System.Web.dll HandlerFactoryTest.cs.
// Copy HandlerFactoryTest.dll to your \bin directory.

         String cname = fname.Substring(0, fname.IndexOf('.'));
         String className = "test." + cname;

'To use the handler factory, use the following lines in a
'Web.config file. (be sure to remove the comment markers)
'
'         <add verb="*" path="abc.aspx" type="test.MyFactory,HandlerFactoryTest" />

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" />
