Correct way of manipulating the url coming from App.config
I have a URL ("http://localhost:2477/") on which I do get and post request. I have stored this URL in the app.config file of my project.
In the code, depending on the function, I add the string "getValue?id=0" or "postValue" to this URL. But I later ran into an issue when I changed the URL to "http://localhost:2477" (no forward slash in the end) in the app.config.
Took me some embarrassing amount of time to figure out this issue, which made me wonder if there is a good way to handle this case.
Irrespective of the case when there is a forward slash or not in the URL, I want my code to change it to a proper URL.
c# asp.net url app-config

Always use Path.Combine(string, string). This method will conform a valid path and should add the / if needed.
edit
I realized my answer does not work for URL, just for file paths.
What you’re looking for is Uri constructor instead.
Uri baseUri = new Uri("http://www.contoso.com");
Uri myUri = new Uri(baseUri, "catalog/shownew.htm");

Using the Uri class you can modify your URL more elegantly. You can access the Host, Port, Query, etc. with ease. A similar question was asked here.
