Asp.Net Session is null in ashx file

Question

I am trying to access the Session variable in Asp.Net ashx handler as shown below.

public void ProcessRequest (HttpContext context) {
              


        

Answer 1

You have to "implement" either IRequiresSessionState or IReadOnlySessionState, with former providing full access to session, and the latter providing read-only access.

I'm quoting "implement" here because these two are so-called "marker interfaces", which means they have no members.
