How can I use a standard ASP.NET session object within ServiceStack service implementation

Question

I\'m just getting started with ServiceStack and, as a test case, I am looking to rework an existing service which is built using standard ASP.Net handlers. I\'ve managed to

Thanks @Richard for your answer above. I am running a new version of service stack and they have removed the ServiceStackHttpFactory with HttpFactory. Instead of having

private readonly static ServiceStackHttpHandlerFactory factory = new ServiceStackHttpHandlerFactory();

You need to have

private static readonly HttpHandlerFactory Factory = new HttpHandlerFactory();

Here is updated code for this service

using ServiceStack;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.SessionState;

namespace MaryKay.eCommerce.Mappers.AMR.Host
{
public class SessionHttpHandlerFactory : IHttpHandlerFactory
{
    private static readonly HttpHandlerFactory Factory = new HttpHandlerFactory();
    public IHttpHandler GetHandler(HttpContext context, string requestType, string url, string pathTranslated)
    {
        var handler = Factory.GetHandler(context, requestType, url, pathTranslated);
        return handler == null ? null : new SessionHandlerDecorator(handler);
    }

    public void ReleaseHandler(IHttpHandler handler)
    {
        Factory.ReleaseHandler(handler);
    }
}

public class SessionHandlerDecorator : IHttpHandler, IRequiresSessionState
{
    private IHttpHandler Handler { get; set; }

    internal SessionHandlerDecorator(IHttpHandler handler)
    {
        Handler = handler;
    }

    public bool IsReusable
    {
        get { return Handler.IsReusable; }
    }

    public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
    {
        Handler.ProcessRequest(context);
    }
}
}
