# ControllerBase

Abstract base sitting directly over `System.Web.Mvc.Controller`; declares no members of its own and exists solely as the common root that `WebContextControllerBase` builds on, reserving a place to add cross-cutting controller behavior later.*

## Purpose
- Abstract base sitting directly over `System.Web.Mvc.Controller`; declares no members of its own and exists solely as the common root that `WebContextControllerBase` builds on, reserving a place to add cross-cutting controller behavior later.*

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Web.Mvc.Controllers`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Framework.Web.Mvc (source-shipping NuGet package)`
- Kind: abstract class (empty)

## Public members
_No public members are declared on this type._

## Behavioral notes
- No public members are declared beyond those inherited from `System.Web.Mvc.Controller`.
