Type of Action Result in ASP.NET MVC:-
ActionResult is used to provide Type of data that will be rendered by the view Object under Controller.
ActionResult is the predefine class of MVC which has different sub classes to manage view data.
1) ViewResult:- It is used to return complete HTML View content under View Page.
It is used to return content page result under controller action method.
it is similar to ActionResult Result but ActionResult is the base class and ViewResult is the subclass.
public ViewResult MethodName()
{
return View();
}
2) Content Result:- It is used to return content from Controller Action Method.
public ContentResult MethodName()
{
return Content("welcome in html");
}
3) PartialViewResult:- It is used to render partial view page ,partial view page is special pages in MVC which will not be rendered by the layout page means it will be rendered independently.
public PartialViewResult Methodname()
{
return PartialView("Methodname");
}
4) Empty Result:- This type is genuinely for returning nothing. But the problem is, this EmptyResult type doesn’t have any helper method. So we can use it by making its object, as shown below, If we want to create without return type method then we can use EmptyResult.
public EmptyResult MethodName()
{
// return null;
return new EmptyResult();
}
5) FileResult :- This is used to return complete File Content ,File can be text,html or xml type.
public FileResult MethodName()
{
return File("filename","file-type");
}
6) JSONResult:- It is used to return JSON Data using JSON array and JSON Object
public JSONResult MethodName()
{
return Json(new { Name = "SCS", ID = 1 });
}
7)JavaScriptResult:- It is used to return JavaScript Data which will be called by any other view page
public JavaScriptResult Index7()
{
return JavaScript("alert('welcome in scs')");
}
We are calling from index.cshtml
<script type="text/javascript" src="@Url.Action("Index7")"></script>
