  1. POIn OpenRasta, is it wrong to configure potentially ambiguous URIs?
    text
    copied!<p>Using OpenRasta and given the following 2 handlers:</p> <pre><code>public class HelloWorldHandler1 { public string GetHelloWorld(string test, string test2) { return "Hello.World!"; } } public class HelloWorldHandler2 { public string GetHelloWorld(string test) { return "Hello.World!"; } } </code></pre> <p>Configured as follows</p> <pre><code>ResourceSpace.Has.ResourcesOfType&lt;Resource1&gt;() .AtUri("/{test}/{test2}") .HandledBy&lt;HelloWorldHandler1&gt;(); ResourceSpace.Has.ResourcesOfType&lt;Resource2&gt;() .AtUri("/Hello/{test}") .HandledBy&lt;HelloWorldHandler2&gt;(); </code></pre> <p>If I GET <code>/first/example</code> then <code>HelloWorldHandler1.GetHelloWorld</code> is called with parameters <code>first</code> and <code>example</code> as expected.</p> <p>If I GET <code>/Hello/example</code> then <code>HelloWorldHandler2.GetHelloWorld</code> is called with parameter <code>Hello</code> when I would expect it to be called with <code>example</code>.</p> <p><strong>Workaround 1</strong></p> <p>If I reverse the order of the configuration:</p> <pre><code>ResourceSpace.Has.ResourcesOfType&lt;Resource2&gt;() .AtUri("/Hello/{test}") .HandledBy&lt;HelloWorldHandler2&gt;(); ResourceSpace.Has.ResourcesOfType&lt;Resource1&gt;() .AtUri("/{test}/{test2}") .HandledBy&lt;HelloWorldHandler1&gt;(); </code></pre> <p>Then the behavior is as expected:</p> <pre><code>GET /first/example =&gt; HelloWorldHandler1.GetHelloWorld["first","example"] GET /Hello/example =&gt; HelloWorldHandler2.GetHelloWorld["example"] </code></pre> <p><strong>Workaround 2</strong></p> <p>If you change the name of parameter:</p> <pre><code>ResourceSpace.Has.ResourcesOfType&lt;Resource2&gt;() .AtUri("/Hello/{somethingelse}") .HandledBy&lt;HelloWorldHandler2&gt;(); public class HelloWorldHandler2 { public string GetHelloWorld(string somethingelse) { return "Hello.World!"; } } </code></pre> <p>Then the behavior is also as expected.</p> <p><strong>Question</strong></p> <ol> <li>Is it wrong to try to configure URIs in this way? Where they are potentially ambiguous as to which handler should be called?</li> <li>Is this a bug in OpenRasta?</li> </ol>
