HTTPModule Event Execution Order?

Viewed 40262

Does anyone know of a site or page, or know the order of execution for the events of the HTTPApplication class for HTTPModule event execution?

I found the MSDN Documentation for all of the events, but it doesn't show a list of process steps and I haven't been able to find one.

An HttpApplication class provides a number of events with which modules can synchronize. The following events are available for modules to synchronize with on each request. These events are listed in sequential order:

  1. BeginRequest
  2. AuthenticateRequest
  3. AuthorizeRequest
  4. ResolveRequestCache
  5. AcquireRequestState
  6. PreRequestHandlerExecute
  7. PostRequestHandlerExecute
  8. ReleaseRequestState
  9. UpdateRequestCache
  10. EndRequest

The following events are available for modules to synchronize with for each request transmission. The order of these events is non-deterministic.

  • PreSendRequestHeaders
  • PreSendRequestContent
  • Error

See the article for full info.

The accepted answer is out-of-date. Here is the list of events in the order they are raised according to the documentation:

  1. BeginRequest

  2. AuthenticateRequest

  3. PostAuthenticateRequest

  4. AuthorizeRequest

  5. PostAuthorizeRequest

  6. ResolveRequestCache

  7. PostResolveRequestCache

    After the PostResolveRequestCache event and before the PostMapRequestHandler event, an event handler (which is a page that corresponds to the request URL) is created. When a server is running IIS 7.0 in Integrated mode and at least the .NET Framework version 3.0, the MapRequestHandler event is raised. When a server is running IIS 7.0 in Classic mode or an earlier version of IIS, this event cannot be handled.

  8. PostMapRequestHandler

  9. AcquireRequestState

  10. PostAcquireRequestState

  11. PreRequestHandlerExecute

  12. PostRequestHandlerExecute

  13. ReleaseRequestState

  14. PostReleaseRequestState

  15. UpdateRequestCache

  16. PostUpdateRequestCache

  17. LogRequest

  18. PostLogRequest

  19. EndRequest
