In this article, I want to change the default ASP.NET MVC Forms Authentication code to reflect my thoughts on how the code should be organized.

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

using System.Web.Routing;

namespace Demo.Web
{
    // Note: For instructions on enabling IIS6 or IIS7 classic mode,

    public class MvcApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
    {
        public static void RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilterCollection filters)
        {
            filters.Add(new HandleErrorAttribute());
        }

        public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
        {
            routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");

            routes.MapRoute(
                "Default", // Route name
                "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
                new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
            );

        }

        protected void Application_Start()
        {
            AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();

            RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
            RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);

            RegisterUnityContainer();
        }

        private void RegisterUnityContainer()
        {
            var container = new UnityContainer();
            UnityConfigurationSection section = (UnityConfigurationSection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("unity");
            section.Configure(container);
            WebRegistry.DependencyLocator = new UnityDependencyLocator(container);
        }
    }
}
