Response.Redirect as "END"

[Guest]

Does a call to Response.Redirect result in an immediate exit from the current
page function (i.e. a "return()")? I want to make sure that the statements
after the Response.Redirect() do not get called.

Response.Redirect has an overload with a second Boolean parameter that, when
true, will immediately end the current page execution and send and HTTP
redirect header to the client.

Response.Redirect ("default.aspx", true);

Just be careful about Response.Redirect with the second Boolean
parameter set to True inside a try-catch block. This would generate an
exception (ThreadAbort).

Hi Alex,

By default Response.Redirect will end the current http request and send
redirect info to client-side so that client side browser will perform
redirecting. And When end the current request, the runtime will abort the
current executing worker thread, in this case, no other code will get
executed on the thread.

The overload without the second parameter does the same as when the
second parameter is set to true.

Response.Redirect ("default.aspx", true);

and

Response.Redirect ("default.aspx");

are equivalent.
