Remarks

When you add an area to an ASP.NET MVC application, Visual Studio creates a file named AreaRegistration. The file contains a class that derives from AreaRegistration. This class defines the AreaName property and the RegisterArea method, which registers the route information for the new area.

The following example shows the AreaRegistration class created for a new area named Blog.

public class BlogAreaRegistration : AreaRegistration
{
    public override string AreaName
    {
        get
        {
            return "Blog";
        }
    }

    public override void RegisterArea(AreaRegistrationContext context)
    {
        context.MapRoute(
            "Blog_default",
            "Blog/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
            new { action = "Index", id = "" }
        );
    }
}
Public Class BlogAreaRegistration
    Inherits AreaRegistration

    Public Overrides ReadOnly Property AreaName() As String
        Get
            Return "Blog"
        End Get
    End Property

    Public Overrides Sub RegisterArea(ByVal context As System.Web.Mvc.AreaRegistrationContext)
        context.MapRoute( _
            "Blog_default", _
           "Blog/{controller}/{action}/{id}", _
            New With {.action = "Index", .id = ""} _
        )
    End Sub
End Class

The Global.asax file contains the RegisterRoutes method that is called when an ASP.NET MVC application starts. The RegisterRoutes method of any application that implements areas must contain a call to the RegisterAllAreas method.

The following example shows a RegisterRoutes method that contains a call to RegisterAllAreas.

public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
    routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
    AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
    routes.MapRoute(
        "Default",                      // Route name
        "{controller}/{action}/{id}",   // URL with parameters
        new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" }  // Parameter defaults
    );
}
[Visual Basic]
Shared Sub RegisterRoutes(ByVal routes As RouteCollection)
    routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}")
    AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas()
    routes.MapRoute( _
        "Default", _
        "{controller}/{action}/{id}", _
        New With {.controller = "Home", .action = "Index", .id = ""} _
    )

End Sub

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
