Singleton pattern in web applications

Question

I\'m using a singleton pattern for the datacontext in my web application so that I dont have to instantiate it every time, however I\'m not sure how web applications work, does

Answer 1

@ryudice the web server creates a new thread for each request. I think the best approach is to have a datacontext bound to each request, meaning that you should create a new datacontext every time you serve a request. A good way of achieving this is by using a DI tool, such as StructureMap. These kind of tools allow you to setup the lifecycle of the instances you configure, so for example in your case you would configure your XDataContext class to be HttpContext scoped.
