How To Store User ID In Session
Feb 15, 2011
When the user logs in, I want to store his userID in the session with
HttpContext.Current.Session["UserID"] = 2354; (this is just a hard-coded example)
Then, when I run a page method, if I do
var test = HttpContext.Current.Session["UserID"];
will the variable test hold the value I stored when he logged in?
If this is a correct way of doing it, how do I access the session when I receive a call from a page method? I want to put the test =... line in a page method to identify which user the request is coming from.

i have a list of fields that i would store for all the user session. I thought to create a class, insert the information in it and store the class in the session but i'm not sure this is the best way to do it (performances, etc). I should have a list of these informations that i can display in views, i can delete and i can update. How could i do this?

I'm am building an web application that needs to be able to scale.We want to store, an connection string, an object that says what organization the user is working on right now and the identity of the user.
We could serialize down this and send through the userdata property in the FormsAuthenticationTicket, but that feels to not be the optimal solution, cause its is 4-5 strings of data that is unncessesary, but the main issue is that we are sending an encrypted connectionstring to the user which we dosent want to.
So what are our options?Can ASP.NET Cache be our solution?, can we couple the expiration of the asp.net cache and the formsauthenticationcookie?

I am using Visual Studio 2008.
I created a New Project ASP.NET Web Application.
I created a Textbox named VisitorName. The visitor puts in their name and it goes in VisitorName.Text
There is a Label that says "Which do you own?"
There is a RadioButtonList. It has Cat, Dog and None.
There is a button that says Add to list.
The button needs to add the results of the above items and put them in the list.
Now you keep adding people and their pets.
Once there are all entered you press send and I get the results for everyone entered during that session via email.
I have no database access and the information does not need to be stored in such a way.
I would like to use a datatable or datalist or something to that sort.
Oh and I would like the visitor to be able to click on a name in the table and edit the data using the form controls not in the datalist or datatable itself.

I need to store a large amount of data in user's session but I guess using Session Object is not the best way of doing that. Is there any other way around??? Remember I don't have small variables to store, I have large collections.

I have an ASP.NET application that needs to remember some info about a user (and what company they are from) across pages, within a session. I imagine this is a requirement of just about any ASP.NET application of a certain size. I've used a few different approaches over the years. In the past, I've passed around an id in querystring parameters like so: [URL] and then instantiated the object on each page (from the database). Another common way of doing it is storing my objects in session variables:
Session["User"] = currentUser; // store at login
User currentUser = (User)Session["User"]; // retrieve on some other page
which saves a trip to the DB, but I worry about memory used if the User object is complex and the site has many concurrent users. I have recently inherited an application that uses public properties on the master page, like this:
Master.theUser = currentUser; // store at login
User currentUser = Master.theUser; // retrieve on some other page
This saves the cast, and looks more readable to me I think, but I don't know if it's better or worse performance-wise. It also has some logic in the getter where if the private value is null, it tries to get it from the Session variable, though I'm not sure if that's never used (or used every get!?) or what. My latest idea is to use my page class. I have a custom page class derived from the standard System.Web.UI.Page base class. It includes objects like CurrentUser as public properties. This seems to work OK. I like it even better. But I really don't know what's going on under the covers. Can anyone give an opinion on which approach is better and why?
Update: I've done some checking use trace.axd and Trace.Write and it looks like neither the masterpage version nor the custom page class version "remember" the values between pages. The "get" methods have a line of code that checks if the User property is null, and if so, reads it from the session variable. This happens when a page accesses the property (Master.User or the derived class's this.User) for the first time on a given page, then subsequent requests can get the value (without going to the session variable). So thus far the best solution looks something like this:
public class MyPage : System.Web.UI.Page
{
private User user;
public User User
{
get
{
if (user == null)
{
user = (User)HttpContext.Current.Session["CurrentUser"]; //check if session[CurrentUser] is null here and log them out if so?
}
return user;
}
set
{
user = value;
HttpContext.Current.Session["CurrentUser"] = value;
}
}
}
Then on any webpage.aspx.cs, you can do something like this: UsernameTextBox.Text = User.FullName;

I have a class called EditMapUtilities. Here are some class properties that I want to persist:
public class EditMapUtlities
{
public static Boolean isInitialEditMapPageLoad
{
get { return SessionHandler.isInitialEditMapPageLoad; }
set { SessionHandler.isInitialEditMapPageLoad = value; }
}
// REST OF CLASS NOT GERMAIN TO DISCUSSION AND OMITTED
}
Here is my SessionHandler Class following the pattern from this post Static Session Class and Multiple Users:
using System.Web.SessionState;
public static class SessionHandler
{
private static HttpSessionState currentSession
{
get
{
if (HttpContext.Current.Session == null)
throw new Exception("Session is not available in the current context.");
else
return HttpContext.Current.Session;
}
}
//A boolean type session variable
private static string _isInitialEditMapPageLoad = "EditMapInitialPageLoad";
public static bool isInitialEditMapPageLoad
{
get
{
if (currentSession[_isInitialEditMapPageLoad] == null)
return true;
else
return (Boolean)currentSession[_isInitialEditMapPageLoad];
}
set
{
currentSession[_isInitialEditMapPageLoad] = value;
}
}
}
I am still learning OOAD. I want to keep relevant properties with relevant classes. I also want to keep all Session stored variables in one place for ease of maintenance and to encapsulate the session keys and calls. I feel like my design is too coupled though. How can I make it more loosely coupled? Is my editMapUtilities class too tightly coupled to the SessionHandler class? How would you do it better?

Currently in an .aspx file, I am storing a value (filename that was created in that session) in an hidden text box. When the user clicks on the "Print" labeled Hyperlink control, it opens the file that was stored in the hidden text box control. But when the user goes to different screen (in the same session), I loose the filename value that is stored in the hidden text box control. So I would like to store the filename variable in a session variable. So that if the user leaves this .aspx file and comes back to this .aspx file I can load the value into the hidden text box from the session variable.

Our application lets the administrator create new users. Since the administrator is logged in, I have set Logincreateduser = false so that the administrator is not logged out even after creating the new user.
The problem is :I need the userid of the newly created user to store additional details of the user in another database table. I see that i can get the username using Createuserwizard1.username; but how do I get the userID?

However, it appears that the Controls collection is not working for me. What am I doing wrong?
this.Controls.OfType<TextBox>() yields no results at run time when I do a quick watch on it.

I'm trying to get asp.net to store viewstate in the session rather than bulking up the html.
Now i've read that asp.net comes with the SessionPageStatePersister which can be used instead of the default HiddenFieldPageStatePersister to do this. I was wondering how i go about dropping it in?
This is what i've got so far:
I think i need to create a PageAdapter that returns a SessionPageStatePersister from its GetStatePersister method, and somehow get the page to use this pageadapter. But Page.PageAdapter only has a getter, so i'm not sure how you set it.

consider this scenario: a user on my website has a profileID. There are some pluginID's associated with this profileID.
E.g.: User1 might have 2, 3 and 5 plugins associated with his profile.
When the user logs in, I store the profileID of the user in a session variable cod. ON a certain page, the user tries to edit the plugins associated with his profile. So, on that page, I have to retrieve those pluginID's from the DB.
I have applied this code but this fetches only the maximum pluginID from the DB and not all the pluginID's.
[Code]....
I was trying to figure out how can I store multiple pluginID's in this session variable?

I have an application running ASP.NET. I have different domains and different sub-domains. I want the domains to share session with their sub domains.
For Example, the following domains access this application:
[URL]
If a user goes to www.example1.com and print.example1.com, I want it to use the same session. If the user were to go to www.example2.com and print.example2.com, I would want it to use a different session than the *.example1.com.
The way I used to handle it was a hack in page_load that works perfectly in IIS6:
Response.Cookies["ASP.NET_SessionId"].Value = Session.SessionID;
Response.Cookies["ASP.NET_SessionId"].Domain = SiteUtility.GetCookieDomain();
(SiteUtility.GetCookieDomain would return .example1.com or .example2.com depending on the url of the request) Unfortunately, this no longer seems to work for iis7. Each subdomain/domain a user goes to, the user gets a new session cookie.
I then found the web.config entry: '<httpCookies domain=".example1.com" />. This works great for sharing session cookie between example1.com subdomains. Unfortunately, this completely screws up session state for *.example2.com.
