How to determine if endpoint routing is enabled at runtime ASP.Net Core

I am converting some of my old ASP.Net Core applications from 2.1 to 3.1.

I know how to use options.EnableEndpointRouting = false to use the legacy IRouter logic; however, once I have set this, is there a flag built into ASP.Net that I can read to tell the current value of EnableEndpointRouting?

I currently call UseMvc from a completely different place from where I set EnableEndpointRouting with AddMvc, and I want to be able to decide whether to use UseMvc or UseEndpoints once I get there.

If you are wondering why I want this to even be switchable, it is part of a framework that I maintain, so the applications do not simply hard code these things inside Startup.

Where do you want to do the value control? In general you can inject MvcOptions and get the value from it.

public class Foo
{
    private readonly IOptions<MvcOptions> _ops;

    public Foo(IOptions<MvcOptions> ops)
    {
        _ops = ops;
    }

    public bool IsEndPointRoutingEnabled => _ops.Value.EnableEndpointRouting;
}

Update

If you want to use GetService instead of injection to the constructor:

public class Foo
{
    private readonly IOptions<MvcOptions> _ops;

    public Foo(IServiceProvider provider)
    {
        _ops = provider.GetService(typeof(IOptions<MvcOptions>)) as IOptions<MvcOptions>;
    }

    public bool IsEndPointRoutingEnabled => _ops.Value.EnableEndpointRouting;
}

Notice that this is considered as anti-pattern and not recommended when using DI is applicable
