Im trying to make a solution like this [URL] Now the question is how do I filter the request, I only want to Open an ISession if the request is for an ASPNET MVC Action, not for *.gif, *.css etc. How should I handle this filtering?
View 3 RepliesI have a web application where I would like to pull user settings from a database and store them for Global access. Would it make more sense to store the data in a Singleton, or a Session object? What's the difference between the two?Is it better to store the data as an object reference or break it up into value type objects (ints and strings)?
View 3 RepliesI'm looking to build an ajax page; it's a reporting page. By default, load today's report. On the page there's a calendar control and when the user clicks on a date, reload the gridview with the corresponding data. Is it considered good practice to do the following:
1) on the first page load, query the data for the page
2) put the query result in the session object and display it in a gridview
3) if the user requests new data, get new data from the query with different parameters
4) put the result of the second query in the session object and display it
5) if the user then requests the data from the first query, get it from the session object
6) do the sorting and paging with the data held in the session.
Note: the data of each query will contain about 300-500 rows and about 15 columns. I'd like to do all this with ajax calls. What are some suggestions and pitfalls to avoid.

We have an ASP.NET MVC site that uses Entity Framework abstractions with Repository and UnitOfWork patterns. What I'm wondering is how others have implemented navigation of complex object graphs with these patterns. Let me give an example from one of our controllers:
[code]....
It's a registration process and pretty much everything hangs off the POCO class Person. In this case we're caching the person through the registration process. I've now started implementing the latter part of the registration process which requires access to data deeper in the object graph. Specifically DPA data which hangs off Legal inside Country.
The code above is just mapping out the model information into a simpler format for the ViewModel. My question is do you consider this fairly deep navigation of the graph good practice or would you abstract out the retrieval of the objects further down the graph into repositories?
Does anyone have a working pattern for converting a GET-POST-GET pattern to asny?
I'm encountering the following issues:
1. You cannot mix Sync and Async action methods SubmitForm(), SubmitFormAsync(bool? confirm), SubmitFormCompleted() ... (because the resolver gets all confused ... it doesn't use the HTTP verb to decide who to target. BTW: I think that's poor design, or a bug)
2. Renaming the get method name to something else eg: SubmitFormConfirmation(), SubmitFormAsync(bool? confirm), SubmitFormCompleted() would be very awkward if it works ... because you have to doctor the <form markup to specify an action name.
3. You cannot give them all async names SubmitFormAsync(), SubmitFormAsync(bool? confirm), submitFormCompleted(), because the call just keeps malfunctioning. It sometime even behaves as if you are requesting a delete of something.
Can someone give an insight from an actually working sample.
Now that the next version of ASP.NET MVC is being prototyped and previewed (ASP.NET MVC 3 Preview 1 came out a couple of weeks ago), I wonder if we should call the attention of the Core Dev team (S Hanselman, Phil Haack and all) to this "feature."there a easy/non tacky way of associating subdomains → areas?Something like:

Have not run the ASP.NET Development Server for a while. Today I copied a production website to my workstation and ran it with VS 2008. The following error message popped up. What is the problem with the ASP.NET development Server on my workstation? The website on the Production server still ran okay.Unable to make the session state request to the session state server. Please ensure that the ASP.NET State service is started and that the client and server ports are the same. If the server is on a remote machine, please ensure that it accepts remote requests by checking the value of KEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesaspnet_stateParametersAllowRemoteConnection.
If the server is on the local machine, and if the before mentioned registry value does not exist or is set to 0, then the state server connection string must use either 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1' as the server name.

In C#, How do you pass the Session[] and Request[] objects to a method?I would like to use a method to parse out Session and Request paramaters for a .aspx page to reduce the size of my Page_Load method.

I have written a HttpModule for our site which generally accepts requests and checks for specific file extensions as well as the value of a specific session variable. Is it possible to detect the first request in a session?
View 1 RepliesAll implementation of IHttpModule I've seen looks following:
[code]....
I am wondering why is the Dispose method always empty? Shouldn't we unsubscribe the event which we subscribe in the Init method?
I've declared an event on an HTTP Module so it will poll subscribers for a true/false value to determine if it should go ahead with its task of tweaking the HTTP Response. If only one subscriber answers true then it runs its logic.
Are there potential pitfalls I'm not seeing?
public class ResponseTweaker : IHttpModule {
// to be a list of subscribers
List<Func<HttpApplication, bool>> listRespondants = new List<Func<HttpApplication, bool>>();
// event that stores its subscribers in a collection
public event Func<HttpApplication, bool> RequestConfirmation {
[Code]....
What is the difference between HttpApplication class and IHttpModule? Are they both same or different?
I see articles that mention the same events in both the classes.
An IHttpModule implementation I created
public class ResponseTweaker : IHttpModule { // my module ...
is registered in Web.config
<system.web>
<httpModules>
<add name="redman" type="ResponseTweaker"/>
</httpModules>
and an instance of it is sitting in the pipeline.
From the perspective of a caller (e.g. from the Global.asax.cs file), how should I get a reference to that module instance?
public class NHibernateSessionPerRequest<T>:IHttpModule
{
public void Dispose() { }
public void Init(HttpApplication context)
{
context.BeginRequest += BeginRequest;
context.EndRequest += EndRequest;
}
}
How can it be registered in web.config?
In one web page we use a flash upload control but becouse a flash bug in the upload event the session is lost as its posted back with a new session.

I'd like to call it like this "ContextPT.GetSession()" and have GetSession know how to find the Session object. I know this does not seem like a big deal in this case, but I have reasons.
just been trying to recieve the session value from multiple jquery ajax requests on the same domain name. i think i understand that each request is kind of a virtual browser request so the session is mutally exclusive to each request, but there must be a way some how, has anyone solved this. Basically this is what im trying to do:
I have tries using type: GET and POST but still no luck.
First request - Stores the product id in a session
[code]....
I'm writing a product management system for a website. As an administrator defines product details, those details are stored in the Session so that fields remain populated as the user navigates across multiple pages. One of these fields is a "RichTextBox" that allows the user to define a product description with rich text.
Attempting to pack the contents of this rich text box into a Session variable raises the following Server Error:
A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_RichTextBox1_tbxRichContent="<b>asdf</b>").
The offending line of code is as follows:
Session["NewProductDescription"] = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(RichTextBox1.Text);
I thought HtmlEncoding would solve the problem, but it did not.
I am trying to use a transaction scope in a transaction-per-request pattern. So I have a http module that do (simplified):
private void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var scope = new TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.RequiresNew);
PutScopeInHttpContext(scope);
}
private void Application_EndRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var scope = GetScopeFromHttpContext();
try
{
if (HttpContext.Current.Error == null)
{
scope.Complete();
}
}
finally
{
scope.Dispose();
}
}
Then, in my web.config, I have:
<httpModules>
<clear/>
<add name="OutputCache" type="System.Web.Caching.OutputCacheModule"/>
<add name="Session" type="System.Web.SessionState.SessionStateModule"/>
<add name="Profile" type="System.Web.Profile.ProfileModule"/>
<add name="ScriptModule" type="System.Web.Handlers.ScriptModule, System.Web.Extensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
<add name="UrlRoutingModule" type="System.Web.Routing.UrlRoutingModule, System.Web.Routing, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>

</httpModules>

What I (think I) understand is that the connection to the ASP.NET session database is sometimes enlisted in my business transaction, and I get this error when my business transaction is completing first.
There is a couple of problem with that:
I don't think the transaction for the session state should be the same as my business one. These are 2 separate concerns.
It makes the transaction automatically escalate to a distributed (MSDTC) one, which impacts my performance.
How do I decouple my business transaction from the ASP.NET session one?
I have noticed that when I have a session that has expired, the Session_OnStart event fires with every new request.
I suppose that this behavior is not normal, because I was expecting that the session would re-start only with the first request and not with every subsequent request.
This behavior occurs only with sessions where the timeout period has been exceded.
The current conditions under which I have experienced this problem are:
I have experienced this problem with an application that is using the .NET 2.0 framework and with a session mode configured to InProc. This problem is happening both on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 2003 Server.
