BaseUrl Property

If a BaseUrl is specified and IsUrl is true, it will be combined with the FilePathOrUrl property. This is useful if you are planning for the domain to change later.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Property BaseUrl As String

'Usage
 
Dim instance As LinkLogic
Dim value As String
 
instance.BaseUrl = value
 
value = instance.BaseUrl

public string BaseUrl {get; set;}

public:
property String^ BaseUrl {
   String^ get();
   void set (    String^ value);
}

Example

C#
VB.NET

LinkLogic linkLogic = new LinkLogic(); //Trial Mode
LinkLogic linkLogicLicensed = new LinkLogic("place user name here", "place license key here");  //License Mode
 
//Use a in memory mock database for testing
ILinkTrackerDatabaseLogic databaseLogic = new LinkTrackerMockDatabase();
 
linkLogic.DatabaseLogic = databaseLogic;
            
//Set the base URL
linkLogic.BaseUrl = "http://www.kellermansoftware.com";
 
//Create a link to a URL that will expire in 30 days
TrackedLink createdLink = linkLogic.CreateExpiringUrl("reseller.aspx", 30);
 
TrackedLink link = linkLogic.GetLinkByGuid(createdLink.LinkGuid);
LinkStatus status = linkLogic.CheckLinkStatus(link);
 
//The status will be Active
Console.WriteLine("Status: " + status);
 
//Get a friendly status for the user
Console.WriteLine("Friendly Status: " + linkLogic.GetFriendlyStatus(link));
 
//Force the link to expire
link.ExpirationDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1);
databaseLogic.SaveTrackedLink(link);
 
status = linkLogic.CheckLinkStatus(link);
 
//The status will be Expired
Console.WriteLine("Status: " + status);
 
//Get a expired friendly status for the user
Console.WriteLine("Friendly Status: " + linkLogic.GetFriendlyStatus(link));
 
//Get the associated URL
Console.WriteLine("URL:  " + createdLink.FilePathOrUrl);
 
//This will perform a Response.Redirect
if (HttpContext.Current != null) //This check not needed if running in ASP.NET process
    linkLogic.ProcessLink(createdLink);
