ASP.NET in a Nutshell

Name

End

Synopsis

Sub Application_OnEnd(  )
   ‘Event handler logic
End Sub

Fired when the application is torn down, either when the web server is stopped or when the global.asax file is modified. The event handler for this event should be defined in the global.asax application file.

Parameters

None

Example

The example below writes an entry to the Application Event log to indicate that the End event has fired.

<Script language="VB" runat="server">
   Sub Application_OnEnd(  )
      Dim EventLog1 As New System.Diagnostics.EventLog ("Application", _
         ".", "mySource")
      EventLog1.WriteEntry("Application_OnEnd fired!")
   End Sub
</script>

Notes

The End event is useful for performing cleanup tasks when the Application ends, either because the web service stops or the global.asax file is changed.
