ViewStateException.Referer Property

Definition

Gets the URL of the page that linked to the page where the view-state exception occurred.

public:
 property System::String ^ Referer { System::String ^ get(); };
public string Referer { get; }
member this.Referer : string
Public ReadOnly Property Referer As String

Property Value

A String containing the HTTP referrer.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to implement a method that deserializes a base64-encoded string and returns an ICollection collection of property settings. The Deserialize method can throw an HttpException exception that contains a ViewStateException object as an inner exception. The example shows how you can catch an HttpException exception and retrieve the properties from the ViewStateException object.

private ICollection LoadControlProperties(string serializedProperties)
{

    ICollection controlProperties = null;

    // Create an ObjectStateFormatter to deserialize the properties.
    ObjectStateFormatter formatter = new ObjectStateFormatter();

    try
    {
        // Call the Deserialize method.
        controlProperties = (ArrayList)formatter.Deserialize(serializedProperties);
    }
    catch (HttpException e)
    {
        ViewStateException vse = (ViewStateException)e.InnerException;
        String logMessage;

        logMessage = "ViewStateException. Path: " + vse.Path + Environment.NewLine;
        logMessage += "PersistedState: " + vse.PersistedState + Environment.NewLine;
        logMessage += "Referer: " + vse.Referer + Environment.NewLine;
        logMessage += "UserAgent: " + vse.UserAgent + Environment.NewLine;

        LogEvent(logMessage);

        if (vse.IsConnected)
        {
            HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("ErrorPage.aspx");
        }
        else
        {
            throw e;
        }
    }
    return controlProperties;
}
Private Function LoadControlProperties(ByVal serializedProperties As String) As ICollection

    Dim controlProperties As ICollection = Nothing

    ' Create an ObjectStateFormatter to deserialize the properties.
    Dim formatter As New ObjectStateFormatter()

    Try
        ' Call the Deserialize method.
        controlProperties = CType(formatter.Deserialize(serializedProperties), ArrayList)
    Catch e As HttpException
        Dim vse As ViewStateException
        Dim logMessage As String

        vse = e.InnerException

        logMessage = "ViewStateException. Path: " + vse.Path + Environment.NewLine
        logMessage += "PersistedState: " + vse.PersistedState + Environment.NewLine
        logMessage += "Referer: " + vse.Referer + Environment.NewLine
        logMessage += "UserAgent: " + vse.UserAgent + Environment.NewLine

        LogEvent(logMessage)

        If (vse.IsConnected) Then
            HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("ErrorPage.aspx")
        Else
            Throw e
        End If
    End Try
    Return controlProperties
End Function 'LoadControlProperties

Remarks

This property returns the same value as the HTTP_REFERER variable in the ServerVariables property. The value is an empty string ("") if no previous request linked to the page.
