Editable Routes In Medium Trust

Posted: 18 Jan 2010 11:17 AM PST

Yesterday I wrote about a technique using dynamic compilation to allow editing routes after you've deployed an application without having to manually recompile your application. I made use of a FileSystemWatcher to monitor a Config directory and dynamically recompiled code when the code file changed. This has one advantage over using the App_Code directory in that the whole App Domain doesn't need to get recycled when you make changes to your routes. Today, my co-worker David Ebbo (who's a master at ASP.NET Build and Compilation system) pointed out one gaping flaw with my approach. It doesn't work in Medium Trust because the FileSystemWatcher class demands full trust . Doh! For many business systems, that may not be a concern. But for my blog...(read more)

Editable Routes

Posted: 17 Jan 2010 10:24 PM PST

In general, once you deploy your ASP.NET MVC application, you can't change the routes for your application without recompiling the application and redeploying the assembly where your routes are defined. This is partly by design as routes are generally considered application code , and should have associated unit tests to verify that the routes are correct. A misconfigured route could seriously tank your application. Having said that, there are many situations in which the ability to change an application's routes without having to recompile the application comes in very handy. This is the situation I find myself in as I build a blog engine where the folks who will install may want to tweak the routes without having to recompile the blog's source...(read more)
