I'd like to pass data from one asp.net page to another. I've seen that using System.Web.Caching.Cache is a good way to accomplish this. I'm wondering if it's a good way to do it and also is there any cleanup or other things I need to keep in mind when you the Cache?
I'm not passing very much, at most two integers.
Is it correct to implement my caching object like this in my controller :
[code]....
And I Use it like this :
[code]....
[OutputCache (Duration=20, VaryByParam="None" )]
public ActionResult display()
{}
This code cache whole page.But, my site has user infomation on top like this ASP.net. The user info "Signed as userid | Edit Profile | ..." section should be changed when user sign in/out. But rest of the page is always same and it's good to Cache.
If the above code is used, the user info on top also cached and give wrong info to user.
How do I setup caching for a Page in ASP.NET and give it a cache key dependency? I am familiar how to do this with a UserControl, I set a Partial Caching attribute and then set
this.CachePolicy = new CacheDependency(..)
How would I do this for a Page? It does not have a CachePolicy object,
I am using System.Web.Caching.Cache in an assembly used by my website.
I have set some key expiration (absolute expiration) to be 10 seconds (just for debugging).
I have also set a callback upon key removal.
The problem is that I see that the cache is getting refreshed after something like 20 seconds and not 10.
I am using HttpRuntime.Cache for this.
I would like to show a code sample, which can shed more light:
[code]....
What could be the problem ?
I am using this to store my user information for authentication. I'd like to know where this is actually being stored? I know that people suggest to store the Session state in SQL. Is this necessary for the Cache as well?
View 4 RepliesI'm making use of the new .NET 4.0 Caching namespace: System.Runtime.Caching.Now, i'm just doing some prototype/fiddling with the new API, in order to work out the best fit for the real app.In line with that, i'm trying to create a page (ASP.NET MVC) that basically dumps out everything in the cache, particularly the following info:
Cache Key
Cache Object
Cache Policy (expiry date, etc)
Cache Dependencies (if any)
However, i can't seem to get anything except the key/object.Here's the code i'm currently playing with:
public ActionResult Index()
{
var cache = MemoryCache.Default;

I've been trying to get image caching working for the last 8 hours and I keep the same problem time and time again, I'm trying to cache Images at the moment and then when thats succesful, apply this to cache my js and css files. I have at the moment Sql Dependancy caching working on my dynamic pages but the page still takes to long due to images not caching.
What I have tried is going to IIS7 Management and adding HTTP Response Header for the images folder and setting various things for the cache control.i dont care how long it caches it on the client or on the proxy servers i just would like it to check when the file was modified and compare it with the one in the client or proxy cache and if they are different then fetch the new image which has been ftp up. i could solve this by changing the image name but the thing is the image name is generated when they are ftp'd to the site by an application and the name is a direct reference to the product so i cant change the name each time, as it would mean making a lot of otherpages accross the board.
so What i would like, is to set and expiry date of lets say 32 days or more on the images and then check to see if they have changed by date modified or some other way of checking(Etags maybe) I'm not sure, if they have changed on the server then redownload and recache them, I tried using post-check and pre-check together but that just permantly cached them, so when i change the image the only way it would display the new image is to just hit F5.
In Brief, how can i Cache images, on the client machine/ proxy cache and recache them when the modified date of the file has changed.
I have use Nhibernate in my MVC Project by me known, Nhibernate have cache on Session and Object. now, I want use HttpContext.Current.Cache (system.web) for cache data something in project. my code same that have problem, haven't it. and that's right or wrong.
View 2 RepliesI've got a web application that runs of a state server. It looks like soon it may need to distributed and there will be two web servers behind a load balancer.
This works great for session state but my next challenge is Cache
My application leverages heavily of cache. I understand ASP.Net 4.0 will be offering more here but nothing much has been said about the how too.
There are two challenges that I face
1). Each webserver will have its own copy of cache whereas it would be more efficient to put this to a third server the same as session state is put to state server.
2). The real challenge is keeping cache in sync if a simple dataset derived from the database is changed my code dumps that cache item and reloads the cache. That's all well on one webserver but webserver number two wont know to drop that particular cache item and reload it. This could cause some unexpected problems in the application.
For scenario number 2 I could attempt to do some smart coding so server number two knows to dump the cache and reload it.
My guess is someone else has already been here before and there's probably a better implementation approach rather than writing extra code.
Does anyone know how I could achieve the goal of keeping Cache in sync between multiple webservers or even better farm Cache management to another server?
I have a page with a number of user controls, In one of my user controls I have a button event. I turn on output cache for the user control that has the button and vary by control using the ID property of a hidden field control in the user control. whenever I turn on the output cache my button event doesn't fire.

how to implement caching in wcf service using System.Web.Caching
View 2 RepliesAmong the many aspects of asp.net that I haven't focused my development on yet is caching. I have a perfect application for it now, I think, with a GridView that sits inside a repeater, and is bound in the Repeater ItemDataBound event. The contents of the GridView will remain static for each Repeater data item for each Client. The nature of the data in the GridView is that it can change from day to day per Client, but wouldn't need to be refreshed more frequently than that. The Page istelf only deals with one at a time Client based on a QueryStringParameter. My questions are a) how do I cache the DataTable so that a call to the DataBase isn't made each time Repeater item is bound and b) can I create/cache multiple DataTables (one for each Client) and let them live for day, checking for existence before calling the SQL stored procedure to regenerate the data?

I'm implementing Outputcache in my application and it works fine, but the first time always take a lot to load and the next following request will be faster...
I would like to know if there is a way to initiate the page caching on the server side and serve the cached page upon the very first request, rather than have it triggered by the user one first time.
We have a wfc layer that wraps the business classes and database access and use a client that lives on the database layer. Amongst our group we are attempting to form standards. Some want to have the client call the web method and pass the page they are requesting and the page size. Pass that to the database and then page in SQL Server use RowNum.Some want to cache the full list of objects in http cache on the service tier and page in memory. They concern here is memory use on the server.
Which would be best for a medium number of users with potentially large number of records to manage (say 30K) Is it better to cache them all in memory and work from there or page at the database as the application scales?
I need to enable caching in my asp.net application, but I do not want to use the webserver's memory for holding cache objects. If I add the page directive for output caching will the page be stored in the asp.net cache object?
View 2 RepliesI have a admin page in asp.net that adds data to a database. This database is available as a JSON string to external websites, however, since it's a lot of data, the external websites cache this data locally.I want to be able to ping the external websites to let them know the data has changed so they can referesh their cache. I figure I can setup an ASHX handler that receives a parameter telling them what data has changed, so they can both delete that data and refresh it.The only part I'm not sure about is the best way to call this external page from my admin page. Do I just do a regular WebRequest and discard the result? or is there a simpler way to call a page from code when you don't need the response?
View 2 RepliesI have a Web Application where I have one and only one master page and with 100's of diffrent content pages
So to speed up my Web app How can i CACHE the mater oage but not the content page??
Master page loads each time whenever content page is requested..
This thing is possible,I have seen it on many diffrent websites where the Website's Master Page Remains Intact and only the content page changes (best example would be Facebook)
How can i have the same effect in my Web Application?
I have a List of objects in an asp.net page. when the page loads in the browser for the first time, I fetch data from the database, create objects with those data and populate the list. All these are done inside the page load event handler. Now when the page is posted back to the page, the previous list is gone, since the variables were all freed.
How can I cache that List, so that when this page is posted back, all my objects are available?
Last night I wrote up my first IHttpModule to do some request processing. I'm using a regular expression to inspect the raw url. The IHttpModule will be called on every request, so it seems reasonable to do some sort of caching of the regular expression object to prevent creation of it on every request.
Now my question... what is better: use the HttpContext.Current.Cache to store the instantiated object or to use a private static Regex in my module?I'm looking forward to the reasons why. Just to clarify: the regex will never change and thus always be the same thing.
I am building a web application using asp.net (c#) and lingtosql. When I perform update operations on my db I update my classes. I use gridview to bind to update information. When I relay solely on the database the page's take very long to load. When I relay solely on the cache, I have old data. What workarounds do I have for have asynchronous cache updating, yet not overload the database with endless requests (I'd like to update the cache only if there has been a change in the database itself, and perform the update operation asynchronously).
View 1 Replieswhat the default serialization used by the ASP.net HttpRuntime.Cache is? Is it Binary, XML, something else?
I am populating a generic List with multiple objects of the same custom type. The custom type is a POCO, there is nothing special about it. All of its properties are public with { get; set; }, it is public, it has no inheritance, it has no interfaces. In fact it is much less complicated than many other objects which we are caching which work without issue. I have tried adding the [Serializable] attribute to the custom class and it has no effect.
I add the list to the cache with a unique key. The list has been verified as populated before it is inserted into the cache, the objects in the list have been verified as populated as well. But when the list is pulled back out of the cache it is an empty list (NOT NULL), it simply has no items in it. This means that the list is being added to the cache and is retrievable but for some reason the cache is having issues serializing the objects in the list.
I just find this freaky weird since I have another list of custom objects which are much more complicated (consisting of Inheritance, Interfaces, and also containing Properties which are generic lists of other complex objects) and the caching of those lists work without issue.
Both the working and non-working list are being managed in C# classes outside of the ASP.net user controls which consume the cached data. Both of these cache handling classes call the exact same Cache Manager class singleton instance which wraps the HttpRuntime.Cache to provide typed methods for pull and pushing objects into the cache.
Here is the class

We display an ASP.NET calendar control and update the color and if the day is enabled with the DayRender event. This process is a bit slow so I'm trying to map out a strategy to cache the results of the all the DayRenders. Basically take a snapshot of the calendar and cache it for X minutes. Where would I hook into the page/control workflow to accomplish this goal?
View 1 RepliesI need to force SSL when going to the final checkout page (for example from default.aspx to checkout.aspx).
I need to pass variables to this check out page and tried to use server.transfer(https://www.mydomain.com/checkout.aspx). I then use previous page .Fincontrol to read text box and label name to this check out page. If I only do the server.transfer("~/checkout.aspx") then my I can read all vakues of my controls from the passing default.aspx page.
But when I force https:// then I cannot read the control values from default.aspx page.
Please give me some tips on how to get control values to the https:// destination page or if you have another tips on how to do it the right way, please let me know.
