Set the AsyncTimeout attribute for your async controllers
Dec 1107Today I decided to convert an action that was making various long calls to external webservices to be asynchronous. With the synchronous version it was long but still under the default script timeout of ASP.NET, so I was very surprised when the async version was returning a System.TimeoutException, even if it was still taking the same amount of time. I tried increasing the ScriptTimeout, but still no luck: the page was timing out. After a bit of searching online I found out that for some str...

In fact there are only 2. Web Development on .NET Professional ASP.NET MVC 3 While Professional ASP.NET MVC v2 was mainly an update of the original professional MVC1 book, the third remake, due to the nature o...

Writing an ASP.NET MVC Controller Inspector
Aug 111199.99999% of the time (yes, I measured it), a controller in ASP.NET MVC is a type, and an action is a method — with reflection as the glue that holds it all together. For most folks, that’s the best way to view how ASP.NET MVC works. But some folks like to dig deeper and get their hands dirty a bit by taking a peek under the hood. Doing so reveals that while the reflection based mapping of controllers types and actions to methods is true by default, it can be easily changed to something else...
