On trying to write a httphandler with the delphi prism command line it get the following error:

C:\Projecten\Oxygene\MyHandler.pas(8,35) : Error : (PE66) Interface property g
etter not implemented for "System.Web.IHttpHandler.IsReusable"


This is the source:

unit MyHandler;

interface

uses System.Web;

type
HelloWorldHandler = public class(System.Object,IHttpHandler)
public
public function GetIsReuseable: boolean;
procedure ProcessRequest(context: HttpContext);
property IsReuseable: boolean read GetIsReuseable;
end;

implementation

function GetIsReuseable: boolean;
begin
Result := false;
end;

procedure HelloWorldHandler.ProcessRequest(context: HttpContext);
begin
context.response.Write('Hello World');
end;

end.


And this is how i compile:


Oxygene MyHandler.pas /assemblyname:MyHandler /type:library /frameworkfolder:C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\FrameWork \v2.0.50727 /ref:$(Framework)\System.Web.dll /ref:$(Framework)\System.dll



I also tried using get_IsReuseable instead of GetIsReuseable but that only leads to more errors ...

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm not a .Net user, but standard Object Pascal syntax dictates you need 'HelloWorldHandler.' in front of methods belonging to the class. Your getIsReusable handler doesn't have that.

You are right it should be there, but it does not solve the problem the same error message is stil there :( Also removing the double public declaration does not help either.

If that doesn't work, I'm sorry hon, I can help no more as I don't have access to Delphi Prism or any other .Net compiler.

Dont feel bad about it. I should blame me for writing an half implementation.
With the classname in front of the funtion get_IsReuseable started to work also i added an constructor so the code now looks like this:


unit MyHandler;

interface

uses System.Web;

type
HelloWorldHandler = class(IHttpHandler)
public
constructor Create;
function get_IsReusable: Boolean;
property IsReusable: Boolean read get_IsReusable;
procedure ProcessRequest(context: HttpContext);
end;

implementation

constructor HelloWorldHandler.Create;
begin
inherited Create;
end;

function HelloWorldHandler.get_IsReusable: Boolean;
begin
Result := False;
end;

procedure HelloWorldHandler.ProcessRequest(context: HttpContext);
var
Response: HttpResponse;
Request: HttpRequest;
begin
Request := context.Request;
Response := context.Response;
Response.Write('<html>');
Response.Write('<body>');
Response.Write('<h1>Hello from a synchronous custom HTTP handler written in
Delphi Prism.</h1>');
Response.Write('</body>');
Response.Write('</html>');
end;

end.


And compiles with this:


Oxygene MyHandler.pas /assemblyname:MyHandler /type:library /frameworkfolder:C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\FrameWork \v2.0.50727 /ref:$(Framework)\System.Web.dll /ref:$(Framework)\System.dll



And in web.config the following should be added to the httphandlers:

<add verb="*" path="*.sample" type="MyHandler.HelloWorldHandler,MyHandler"/>


So http://localhost/test/test.sample shows Hello from a synchronous custom HTTP handler written in Delphi Prism.
