WebControlsSectionHandler - Undocumented Object

M

<section name="webControls"
type="System.Web.Configuration.WebControlsSectionHandler, System.Web,
Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />

Wondering where is the documentation on the WebControlsSectionHandler. I assume
it doesn't even exist.

This section is located in machine.config. It implements IDictionary and
contains clientScriptsLocation key with the value of the clientScriptsLocation.
I had to work my rear off in order to get this to work during design time
(reading Machine.Config by getting it's location from the registry and finding
the proper node that contains the proper attribute). Phew, got it to work though
:)

Why does this node exist without proper MSDN documentation? Looked it up on
Google and found 4 hits. There is only 1 place in the documentation where it
mentions the key clientScriptsLocation. No documentation for
WebControlsSectionHandler object.

BTW, clientScriptsLocation, by default, points to "/aspnet_client/{0}/{1}/",
which is useful for grabbing the client files directory to store client scripts.
