What is the order of execution when dealing with .NET MVC 2 Action Filters?
- by user357933
Say I have:
[Attribute1(Order=0)]
public class Controller1
{
[Attribute2]
[Attribute3]
public ActionResult Action1() { ... }
}
The attributes get executed in the following order:
2, 3, 1
This makes sense because attributes 2 and 3 have an order of -1 and will be executed before attribute 1 which has an explicitly set order equal to 0.
Now, lets say I have:
[Attribute1]
[Attribute2(Order=0)]
public class Controller1
{
[Attribute3]
public ActionResult Action1() { ... }
}
The attributes get executed in the following order:
1, 2, 3
Why is it that attribute 2 in this case (which has an order equal to 0) is executed before attribute 3 (which has an order equal to -1)?
