Detecting if a HttpModule is loaded


I'm trying to find a way to programmatically check if a particular HttpModule is loaded (as a component I'm writing requires the module to work correctly). I'm trying:

bool ismodulepresent = false;
foreach(HttpModuleAction module in ((HttpModulesSection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.web/httpModules")).Modules)
{ 
    if(module.Type == typeof(MyModule).FullName)
    {
        ismodulepresent = true;
        break;
    }
}

But that only works for the IIS5.1 <httpModules> section and not the newer <system.webServer> section.

Any idea if there is a better way to do this other than just checking both sections?


Solution

  • HttpModuleCollection modules = HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.Modules;
    foreach (string moduleKey in modules.Keys)
    {
        IHttpModule module = modules[moduleKey];
        // Do your check here
    }
