IMapPathProvider::GetUrl Method
Retrieves the relative URL for the request.
Syntax
virtual PCWSTR GetUrl(
) const = 0;
Parameters
This method takes no parameters.
Return Value
A pointer to a Unicode string that contains the relative URL.
Remarks
The GetUrl method retrieves the relative path for the current request when an HTTP module is processing the CHttpModule::OnMapPath event.
Example
The following code example demonstrates how to use the GetUrl method to create an HTTP module that retrieves the relative URL for the current request and returns the URL to a Web client.
#define _WINSOCKAPI_
#include <windows.h>
#include <sal.h>
#include <httpserv.h>
// Create the module class.

// Set the initial return status flag to false.

// Buffer to store the translated URL.

// Retrieve a pointer to the URL.

// Test for an error.

// Allocate space to store the URL.

}
Your module must export the RegisterModule function. You can export this function by creating a module definition (.def) file for your project, or you can compile the module by using the /EXPORT:RegisterModule switch. For more information, see Walkthrough: Creating a Request-Level HTTP Module By Using Native Code.
You can optionally compile the code by using the __stdcall (/Gz) calling convention instead of explicitly declaring the calling convention for each function.
