I cant figure out how to use the Application["myvar"] variable to store data for the application in asp.net 4.0 web app using c#. It say Application is not a known object and I can't for the life of me figure what to do a "using" on to expose it. I am in a static class at the time I cant use it. It seems to work in other units?

How do I store a variable or object application wide in ASP.net MVC. In regular ASP, you had the Application object, and in ASP.net too apparently.
View 1 RepliesThis question actually refers to a classic ASP page I'm working on, but I'm assuming that app variables work the same in both ASP and ASP.NET Let's say we have a bunch of websites, owned by different people. The sites are all different, but the common theme is they are car enthusiast websites. Each of these websites has their own unique index page (of course), but also "common" pages, which are pages shared by all the websites.
One of the common pages, checks for the value of an application variable, which may or may not exist. For example, lets call this page luxurycars.asp, which is a simple page that shows the top 10 luxury cars of this year. This common luxury car page will pull and use the app variable like so:
[CODE]
Dim SiteOwner
SiteOwner = Application("OwnerName")
Response.Write("This site is managed by " & SiteOwner)
[/CODE]
This app variable is set uniquely in each clients index.asp page like so:
[CODE]
Application("OwnerName") = "John Doe"
[/CODE]
Will this work? I just started learning classic ASP (for my job), and I'm reading that application variables are universal and only one copy of the variable will exist. So does this mean if John Doe sets Application("OwnerName") to "John Doe" in HIS index.asp page, will everyone that visits the common luxury car page see John Doe's name? Regardless of whether they got to that page via John Doe's page or someone elses? And if so would using a Session variable instead solve this problem? Sorry if this sounds confusing, let me know if I need to re-word it or give more detail...
I store a large structure holding my application's reference data in a variable I access through HttpContext.Application. Every once in a while this data needs to change. When I update it in place, is there a danger that incoming requests will see the data in an inconsistent state? Is there a need (and a way) to lock some or all of this structure? Finally, are there other approaches to this problem other than querying the database every time you need this (mostly static) data?
View 3 Repliesi am developing a website in asp.net i have created a class "Utility" in App_Code Folder this class contains a static object of another class(LoginInfo) as described below:
[Code]....
This LoginInfo Class is my business object which only contains 2 properties UserID and UserName
Now what i am doing on my login page, after user authentication i am setting these properties with current logged in UserId and UserName
[Code]....
I am using this CurrentUser object on my webpage to get userid and username. It works fine, but after few minutes my CurrentUser.UserID and CurrentUser.UserName is set to blank string. I am not able to figure out what is the problem. may be due to asp.net recycles.

View 1 RepliesI set up various global parameters in Global.asax, as such:
Application["PagePolicies"] = "~/Lab/Policies.aspx";
Application["PageShare"] = "/Share.aspx";
Application["FileSearchQueries"] = Server.MapPath("~/Resources/SearchQueries.xml");
I have no problem accessing these variables form .ascx.cs or .aspx.cs file -- ie. files that are part of the Web content. However, I can't seem to access 'Application' from basic class objects (ie. standalone .cs files). I read somewhere to use a slight variations in .cs files, as follows, but it always comes throws an exception when in use:
String file = (String)System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Application["FileSearchQueries"];
Every time I build my web application, my session variables are lost from before the build. Is there anyway to preserve session variables during the build?
View 3 RepliesWhat is the recommended or usual way an ASP.net web application(in C# language) can store/access values that are needed accross the various pages in a website. For example a basic company website might need the company's name and other related information available to multiple pages. Where do I declare these variables/values and how do I access them. Coming from c++ application programming I would usually store such data in a Singleton class object.
View 5 RepliesI know I can allow the web service access to Session variables by adding (EnableSession=true). Is there a way to allow it access to global Application variables?

I'm developing a server control and I'd like to set some cache and application level variables but I don't want them to be visible from outside the control. Is this possible?
View 1 RepliesIf I have a 2 control load events and one page load event subs and the control1_Load events fires first, can I lookup some database things and persist them? I would like to use the persisted data in the other two events when they fire. Normally I've been using session variables , is there a better way?
View 3 RepliesIn an ASP.NET web app written in VB.NET, I need to load and store a large read-only hash table that is frequently accessed by the application. It only needs to be loaded once on application start, is never updated and can be accessed by any session at any time.
If I load the hash table into a private member in a (global) module, a lookup to it takes one 20th of the time compared to storing the hash table in the Application or Cache object. Is there any reason why I should not do this, or should Application or Cache always be used to store in-memory objects in an ASP.NET web application?
i am trying to collect 2 variables from one hyperlink, and use those variables in the page_load to set as session. but i don't know how to collect those 2 variables

View 16 Replieswhats the exact use of static variables in overall programming in .net and for asp.net...
Recently i went for the interview where interviewer asked me 2 question which i was not sure for the same..
whats the use of session object, i said sessions are the server side object, they are used when you want to store user specific data at server side, then he asked what if i want to use static variables for the same, i was mum, can anyone tell me how asp.net will behave if i store the user specific information in static variables.If i use cookies which are the best option to store the data at client side (not sensitive one), but what if user has disabled cookies on his machine, will my application would crash.
I have this function that I want to pass the IP and port to and check for a connection. It works fine if I put "127.0.0.1" in the tcpClnt.Connect line. But if I pass the IP2 as shown in the line commented out, it tells me No such host is found. It's like it thinks "IP2" is the host name. How can I pass a variable in there?

I know what they are and how they are used but i am not sure about their feasibility. Their use is always advised to be avoided. can some one explain me when they should be used and when not?
Aif i have a choice between static veriable and session for just storing an integer which one of these should i prefer??
I have some WCF services. These services run in ASP.NET. I want these services to be able to access a static variable. My problem is, I'm not sure where the appropriate server level storage mechanism is. I don't want to use the database because of speed. But, I want the static variables to stay in memory as long as possible. In fact, I'd like it to stay until I restart my server if it all possible.
View 2 RepliesI'm using ASP.NET MVC (I'm really new to both asp.net and the asp.net mvc type projects, but trying hard to learn).
I've set up MVC with a controller so that it runs a C#.net method which;
queries an mssql db
converts it to json
returns the json string
It's called from the javascript by requesting an url with a parameter. But what I need now is for the C# part to read two integer variables from the javascript. What would be the best way to do that, and does anyone have any good examples/code that I could look at?
I'm having some troubles using Session Variables as they are being used as Reference and I want to use them as value.

// Adding Rows of Data to DataTable dt
HttpContext.Current.Session["SearchReturn-DataTable"] = dt;

I have this VB ASP.NET sql data source that calls a stored procedure.
I also on the same page have a custom html form.
What I need to do is asign the form values the values of the database entries.
So something like:
UsernameFormField.Value = DatabaseParameter "username".ToString
why I couldn't get the variable from the URL.
<meta property="og:title" content="<% Response.Write(Request.QueryString["title"]); %>"/>
For some reason the code, <% Response.Write(Request.QueryString["title"]); %>, does not retrieve the data in this case. It works fine if I put it in the title tag though.
