How to support leagcy urls(Web forms type) in asp.net mvc routing
Someone asked on Stack Overflow:
We have recently shifted to asp.net mvc, but we still need to support some legacy urls. What is the best way to handle this situation. Is it Application_PreRequestHandlerExecute() event in global.asax, that I need to use or is there any better way?
I posted the following answer, which was chosen as the accepted answer and received 1 upvote:
You can use the URL Rewrite module for IIS7. Scott Hanselman has a good post on using URL rewrite to to handle legacy URLs here.
Another option, I believe you can simply add a route that matches your old url syntax.
