Properties

	Name	Description
	ThisAssembly	Gets the assembly in which the concrete module type is located. To avoid bugs whereby deriving from a module will change the target assembly, this property can only be used by modules that inherit directly from Module. (Inherited from Module.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	AttachToComponentRegistration	Override to attach module-specific functionality to a component registration. (Inherited from Module.)
	AttachToRegistrationSource	Override to perform module-specific processing on a registration source. (Inherited from Module.)
	Configure	Apply the module to the component registry. (Inherited from Module.)
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	Load	Registers web abstractions with dependency injection. (Overrides ModuleLoad(ContainerBuilder).)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

This Module is primarily used during application startup (in Global.asax) to register mappings from commonly referenced contextual application properties to their corresponding abstraction.

The following mappings are made:

Common Construct	Abstraction
HttpContext.Current	HttpContextBase
HttpContext.Current.Application	HttpApplicationStateBase
HttpContext.Current.Request	HttpRequestBase
HttpContext.Current.Request.Browser	HttpBrowserCapabilitiesBase
HttpContext.Current.Request.Files	HttpFileCollectionBase
HttpContext.Current.Request.RequestContext	RequestContext
HttpContext.Current.Response	HttpResponseBase
HttpContext.Current.Response.Cache	HttpCachePolicyBase
HttpContext.Current.Server	HttpServerUtilityBase
HttpContext.Current.Session	HttpSessionStateBase
HostingEnvironment.VirtualPathProvider	VirtualPathProvider

In addition, the UrlHelper type is registered for construction based on the current RequestContext.

The lifetime for each of these items is one web request.
