MVC的控制器的激活过程，我们从MvcHandler开始讲，前面的事情以后再讲

一、从MvcHandler开始(不要觉得是代码，让你看懂才是最重要的）

using Microsoft.Web.Infrastructure.DynamicValidationHelper;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Linq;
using System.Reflection;

我们暂时以MvcHandler为起点,至于前面谁调用了它，大家先自行研究。

系统控制权移交到MvcHandler时，这时候MVC应该说正式上场了，前面我们叫做准备工作吧。

 MvcHandler : IHttpAsyncHandler, IHttpHandler, IRequiresSessionState

IHttpAsyncHandler, IHttpHandler定义 ASP.NET 为使用自定义 HTTP 处理程序,同时开启了session.

 

void IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest(HttpContext httpContext)
        {
            this.ProcessRequest(httpContext);
        }

 

protected virtual void ProcessRequest(HttpContext httpContext)
{
    HttpContextBase httpContext2 = new HttpContextWrapper(httpContext);
    this.ProcessRequest(httpContext2);
}

 

protected internal virtual void ProcessRequest(HttpContextBase httpContext)
{
    IController controller;
    IControllerFactory controllerFactory;
    this.ProcessRequestInit(httpContext, out controller, out controllerFactory);//初始化工作
    try
    {
        controller.Execute(this.RequestContext);//进入主战场了
    }
    finally
    {
        controllerFactory.ReleaseController(controller);
    }
}

二、初始化

private void ProcessRequestInit(HttpContextBase httpContext, out IController controller, out IControllerFactory factory)
{
    HttpContext current = HttpContext.Current;
    if (current != null && ValidationUtility.IsValidationEnabled(current) == true)
    {
        ValidationUtility.EnableDynamicValidation(current);
    }
    this.AddVersionHeader(httpContext);//httpContext 封装有关个别 HTTP 请求的所有 HTTP 特定的信息
    this.RemoveOptionalRoutingParameters();
    string requiredString = this.RequestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("controller");
    factory = this.ControllerBuilder.GetControllerFactory();
    controller = factory.CreateController(this.RequestContext, requiredString);//创建了一个controller 对象。
    if (controller == null)
    {
        throw new InvalidOperationException(string.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, MvcResources.ControllerBuilder_FactoryReturnedNull, new object[]
        {
            factory.GetType(),
            requiredString
        }));
    }
}

三、主战场

controller.Execute(this.RequestContext);//进入主战场了，controller是IController,但其实一个Controller实例，
而 Controller : ControllerBase，所以进入ControllerBase里面看看

protected virtual void Execute(RequestContext requestContext)
        {
            if (requestContext == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("requestContext");
            }
            if (requestContext.HttpContext == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentException(MvcResources.ControllerBase_CannotExecuteWithNullHttpContext, "requestContext");
            }
            this.VerifyExecuteCalledOnce();
            this.Initialize(requestContext);
            using (ScopeStorage.CreateTransientScope())
            {
                this.ExecuteCore();//也就是调用了Controller 的ExecuteCore方法
            }
        }

protected override void ExecuteCore()
        {
            this.PossiblyLoadTempData();
            try
            {
                string requiredString = this.RouteData.GetRequiredString("action");
                if (!this.ActionInvoker.InvokeAction(base.ControllerContext, requiredString))
                {
                    this.HandleUnknownAction(requiredString);
                }
            }
            finally
            {
                this.PossiblySaveTempData();
            }
        }

public IActionInvoker ActionInvoker
{
    get
    {
        if (this._actionInvoker == null)
        {
            this._actionInvoker = this.CreateActionInvoker();
        }
        return this._actionInvoker;
    }
    set
    {
        this._actionInvoker = value;
    }
}

protected virtual IActionInvoker CreateActionInvoker()

    IAsyncActionInvoker arg_23_0;

　　　//　没有异步的就看看有没有同步的，没有同步的就直接初始化一个异步的。

    {
        arg_23_0 = (this.Resolver.GetService<IActionInvoker>() ?? new AsyncControllerActionInvoker());
    }
    return arg_23_0;
}

            }
    

IActionInvoker,系统采用IOC创建了一个IActionInvoker对应的实例，我们不知道是什么类型，但无非AsyncControllerActionInvoker : ControllerActionInvoker
这两个（当然前者还是继承了后者）
，此处我们以

ControllerActionInvoker作为讨论对象。其中的方法如下

public virtual bool InvokeAction(ControllerContext controllerContext, string actionName)
        {
            if (controllerContext == null)
            {

            }
            if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(actionName))
            {
                throw new ArgumentException(MvcResources.Common_NullOrEmpty, "actionName");
            }
            ControllerDescriptor controllerDescriptor = this.GetControllerDescriptor(controllerContext);
            ActionDescriptor actionDescriptor = this.FindAction(controllerContext, controllerDescriptor, actionName);
            if (actionDescriptor != null)
            {
                FilterInfo filters = this.GetFilters(controllerContext, actionDescriptor);
                try
                {
                    AuthorizationContext authorizationContext = this.InvokeAuthorizationFilters(controllerContext, filters.AuthorizationFilters, actionDescriptor);
                    if (authorizationContext.Result != null)
                    {
                        this.InvokeActionResult(controllerContext, authorizationContext.Result);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        if (controllerContext.Controller.ValidateRequest)
                        {

 ControllerDescriptor

封装描述控制器的信息，如控制器的名称、类型和操作 以及一些元数据等

   继承层次结构

 

 System.Object 
  System.Web.Mvc.ControllerDescriptor
    System.Web.Mvc.Async.ReflectedAsyncControllerDescriptor
    System.Web.Mvc.ReflectedControllerDescriptor

下一章我们接着讲Action的执行过程
