Can you overload controller methods in ASP.NET MVC?

Question

I\'m curious to see if you can overload controller methods in ASP.NET MVC. Whenever I try, I get the error below. The two methods accept different arguments. Is this some

Answer 1

You could use a single ActionResult to deal with both Post and Get:

public ActionResult Example() {
   if (Request.HttpMethod.ToUpperInvariant() == "GET") {
    // GET
   }
   else if (Request.HttpMethod.ToUpperInvariant() == "POST") {
     // Post  
   }
}

Useful if your Get and Post methods have matching signatures.
