How can you access RouteData from the code-behind?

Question

When using ASP.Net routing, how can you get the RouteData from the code-behind?

I know you can get it from the GetHttpHander method of the RouteHandler (you get handed the RequestContext), but can you get this from the code-behind?

Is there anything like...

RequestContext.Current.RouteData.Values["whatever"]; 

...that you can access globally, like you can do with HttpContext?

Or is it that RouteData is only meant to be accessed from inside the RouteHandler?

Answer 1

You could also use the following:

//using System.Web; HttpContext.Current.Request.RequestContext.RouteData 

Answer 2

You can use the following:

RouteTable.Routes.GetRouteData(new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current));
