If we declare a static variable in Global.asax then how to access it inside an ASP.NET page ?
<script runat=server">
public static object myObject = new MyClass();
// Application_Start() and other stuff goes here.
</script>
And, is this a good idea for storing a global object (same instance for all requests) ?
I am using the following code in my Global.asax.cs file:
public static readonly IMyCommunicationService GlobalCommunicationChannel =
new ChannelFactory<IMyCommunicationService>("NetTcpBinding_IMyCommunicationService").CreateChannel();
From every website I am accessing the static var "GlobalCommunicationChannel".
That is working very well so far. But sometimes, in production environment, I am getting an CommunicationObjectFaultedException. It says that I can not use my GlobalCommunicationChannel object as the object "System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel" is in faulted-state.
I get no more information than that. After some minutes it is working again. Don't know why. I think the connection is re-established or something like that.
What causes this error? Is there a way to avoid this error in future without adding a try/catch and a retry everywhere?
i declared a static variable in global.asax file like below
<%@ Application Language="C#" %>

I wanted to access this url in Application_start event in global.asax, Can i some how get it?
[I know i can get it via application_beginrequest or other event]
I know there is a couple answered questions on here regarding "request scoped" globals, but I want to nit-pick on something specifically and maybe squeeze some extra enlightenment out of one or two of you.I have an ASP.NET C# Website and a static Dictionary of objects (loaded from DB once on Application start). Each page request will need to do a lookup in the Dictionary (based on a key derived from the request url/etc) and get the appropriate object.The issue is I'm trying to maximize efficiency by reducing the lookups to the Dictionary per Request. Doing just a single lookup within a Page itself is easy enough and I can pass the object to sub controls, etc too.. but global.asax is separate from the Page and it also needs to use the object (in Application_BeginRequest and Session_Start).
So is doing a Dictionary lookup once in Application_BeginRequest, once (when necessary) in Session_Start and once in the Page negligible speed wise, even if there are many requests coming in every second?I would like it if I could just have a Request scoped global variable that I can easily call upon.. the only one I see available though is HttpContext.Current.Items and that is a Dictionary itself.Am I beingridiculously nit-picky with my concern over efficiency? or will these milliseconds (nanoseconds?) get me in the long run when more and more requests are being made?
PS. I currently only have around 100 objects in the Dictionary although this may increase in the future.
I ask if i can use static variables in my web application, what are the alternatives to (static)? when i use static variable in specific page and more than one user use the application , it make conflict data(incorrect data).what are the limits of static members using?are static members are shared in memory?
View 3 RepliesI have a member function that does not depend on any member variables of the class. (in my case the class is an ASP.Net Page)
The function is protected, I dont need it outside of this class. Its only purpose is to build an URL from an given object.
Should I make all my functions static if they dont depend on the class, even if they are not used outside of this class?

View 4 RepliesIs it possible in the global.asax file on session_start to check if a url string exists and it it does insert the string into a sql database? The url would be something link http://www.mysite.com?campaign=january.

I have a hosting account on DailyRazor.com , i use Global.asax in my project to start a schedule process in Application_Start.When i just publish my website, and upload it, the Application_Start does not Fire, but when i upload the Global.asax to my host it gives an Error but the Applicaiton_Start Event fires up, and then i delete the Global.asax file and everything works.just wondering, What am doing wrong ? or why this meaningless thing happens?
View 2 RepliesI have a site with multiple domains pointing to it. I wanted to redirect all requests to main domain so I've created a method called RedirectToRealDomain("domain.com") to check and redirect all requests to my preferred domainAt the moment it lives on Session_Start but I am planing to move it to Application_BeginRequest event. As I understand Session_Start only raised when new session started but Application_BeginRequest raised on all requests. RedirectToRealDomain method doesn't do any DB lookups or anything expensive apart from comparing strings.

I am trying to check if the user belongs to someone's friendlist from the database and redirect him accordingly.I am doing this in a routehandler called by Global Asax.I just want to know how to get the username (from the login information) in the route handler class (or Global asax)I used this: string username = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name; and very strangely, its assigning ".aspx" as the username!! ps: i did search for similar question but in vain.
View 1 RepliesI need replace double slashes in one slash. I am planning do this in Global.asax Application_BeginRequest event. Is it enough? or better do a http module?

I was under the impression till now that Global.asax is used for application level events and it's a common file for all users. Then what does Session_Start event does in this file. If we have to create user session varaibles then Is this the write place to create those? If someone can kindly clear my confusion on this file and it's methods.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to handle all my application exceptions inside the global.asax but from some reason it's not firing at all, i never tried to do it before so i guess i'm doing something wrong here...

I'm using the HttpRunTime.Cache.Add to create a routine that runs every 5 mins to post data out of my app to the main DB, and this works fine. However I also need to import some files from disk in this routine. I have my document directory set up in my web.config as a ~/ relative path and resolve this in normal controller actions using Server.MapPath(string). How can I do this in my Global.asax.cs code -when I try to access it, it throws an error?
View 3 RepliesI have a custom error handler in the global.asax's Application_Error method, when an error occurs I use the following code to transfer user to the error page:Server.Transfer("/Error/");
However without specifying the actual page name the code above breaks with "Error executing child request for /Error/" exception.So if I use Server.Transfer("/Error/Default.aspx") it works fine with no problems.Also using Response.Redirect("/Error/") works fine too, however we want to keep using Server.Transfer to retain URL displayed in the address bar when the error page is displayed so users can simply refresh the page to retry accessing the original offending URL.Would be grateful if anyone can comment on how to get the Server.Transfer method working without specifying the actual aspx page name.
I've got an website running on a third-party hosting server. Now I've got a few objects in global asax. But once in like 6 hours or so (didn't really check how long) the object gets reset to default values.Is this an problem in global asax that it reset's himself or is this the server on which I'm hosting?
View 3 Replieswe have a store that we contracted with a company to modify. They added the following to our Global.asax file:
[code]...
The purpose is to take anyone going to one of our pages to a login screen unless they are going to these folders which do not need the login protection.
I now need to let them go to [URL]
The purpose of the code associated with the Global.asax is to hold functionality to respond to various application-level events.
But why is there a markup file associated with the Global.asax.cs? I presume this is an ASP.NET implementation side effect?
I was given a web app written in VB.net. I am using VS2008. The project has a Global.asax page with Enums declared
Example:Public Enum eCurrentLoc as Integer
Admins
AdminTools
Home
LogIn
Status
End Enum
But in the web application itself I get errors on this line of code:
Ads = Global.eCurrentLoc.Admins
I get the blue scwigly line under Global.eCurrentLoc
The error states 'eCurrentLoc' is not a memeber of '<Defaults>'
