	this IApplicationBuilder builder,
	PageBuilderOptions options = null
)

The application builder.

options (Optional)

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IApplicationBuilder. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
InvalidOperationException	Thrown when MapRoutes(ExtensionPoint<RouteCollection>) has already been called.

Remarks

Enabling the Page builder feature also registers components' bundles to Bundles() and prepares routes to be mapped once MapRoutes(ExtensionPoint<RouteCollection>) is called. Inherently this method must be called prior to system routes mapping.
