How to use in global.asax?

[jfkrueger]

The readme states: "If you do not want to use Global.asax,.." and then goes on to give an example of a static class and method but I've been looking all over the place to see how to use this if we wanted to use the PreStartInitialize as mentioned earlier in the readme. From what I understand I would use HttpApplication.RegisterModule(elmahErrorModule.GetType) but I'm not getting the connection between that and bootstrapper and how to actually configure the mail settings so that they are not stored in the web.config.

Thanks!

This is automatically done on your behalf here:

Bootstrapper/Bootstrapper.cs

Line 45 in 828c450

[assembly: PreApplicationStartMethod(typeof(Ignition), "Start")]

Ignition.Start internally calls the following method that makes the calls to HttpApplication.RegisterModule:

Bootstrapper/Bootstrapper.cs

Lines 213 to 221 in 828c450

	static void StartImpl()
	{
	// TODO Consider what happens if registration fails halfway
	ServiceCenter.Current = GetServiceProvider;
	foreach (var type in DefaultModuleTypeSet)
	HttpApplication.RegisterModule(type);
	}

It registers all of the following modules:

Bootstrapper/Bootstrapper.cs

Lines 223 to 235 in 828c450

	static IEnumerable<Type> DefaultModuleTypeSet
	{
	get
	{
	yield return typeof(ErrorLogSecurityModule);
	yield return typeof(ErrorLogModule);
	yield return typeof(ErrorMailModule);
	yield return typeof(ErrorFilterModule);
	yield return typeof(ErrorTweetModule);
	yield return typeof(ErrorLogHandlerMappingModule);
	yield return typeof(InitializationModule);
	}
	}

Hope this clears up the connection.
