Working With Model View Controller - ASP.NET

Overview:

MVC is an architectural design pattern that separates an application into three main layers:

1. Model
2. View
3. Controller

Model
- Implements logic

View
- Displays UI

Controller
- Acts as User Interaction (similar to that of a button click in asp.net)
- Handles and responds to user input and interaction
- Works with model
- Selects a view to be rendered

MVC Life Cycle:

•  User enters an URL in the browser and submits the request.

• URLRoutingModule : - Entry point to MVC application

• This is an HTTP module. It intercept the request and decides whether the request is handled by MVC application.
• Selects the first matching route.
• In Application_Start event of Global.asax.cs file, routes are added to the RouteCollection.
• RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
• Inside the RegisterRoutes method, routes.MapRoute method is used to map the specified URL route and sets default route values.
•
