ASP.MVC 3 routing : how to get url with default action included?

Suppose I have the following routing

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

Now, when you generate an url using Url.Action("Index","MyController") you will get as expected : /MyController

But in one exceptional case, I would like to get the full url /MyController/Index (without changing the routing)... does anyone know if this is possible?

It is possible. But you need to modify the routing.

  1. Create an own routing class that derives Route
  2. Override the GetVirtualPath() method to include /index for the pages that needs it.
  3. Configure the default route using your routing class instead.

I am afraid this is not possible. And it shouldn't matter as both urls will resolve to the same controller action.
