httpcontext

I created Get/Set HttpContext Session Methods in BaseController class and also Mocked HttpContextBase and created Get/Set methods. Which is the best way to use it. HomeController : BaseController { var value1 = GetDataFromSession("key1") SetDataInSession("key2",(object)"key2Value"); Or var value2 = SessionWrapper.GetFromSession("key3"); GetFromSession.SetDataInSession("key4",(object)"key4Value"); } public class BaseController : Controller { public T GetDataFromSession<T>(string key) { return (T) HttpContext.Session[key]; } public void SetDataInSession(string key, object value) { HttpContext

I'm adding ASP.NET routing to an older webforms app. I'm using a custom HttpHandler to process everything. In some situations I would like to map a particular path back to an aspx file, so I need to just pass control back to the default HttpHandler for asp.net. The closest I've gotten is this public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context) { // .. when we decide to pass it on var handler = new System.Web.UI.Page(); handler.ProcessRequest(context); MemoryStream steam = new MemoryStream(); StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(stream); HtmlTextWriter htmlWriter = new HtmlTextWriter(writer);

So I am compressing my output stream via an action filter: var response = filterContext.HttpContext.Response; response.Filter = new DeflateStream(response.Filter), CompressionMode.Compress); Which works great. Now, I would also like to remove the excess whitespace present. I found Mads Kristensen's http module http://madskristensen.net/post/A-whitespace-removal-HTTP-module-for-ASPNET-20.aspx . public class WhitespaceFilter : Stream { // using Mads Kristensen httpModule // http://madskristensen.net/post/A-whitespace-removal-HTTP-module-for-ASPNET-20.aspx private Stream os; private static Regex

Is there any way to get HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Host and HttpContext.Current.Request.ApplicationPath in one call? Something like "full application url"? EDIT: Clarification - what I need is this the part within []: http://[www.mysite.com/mywebapp]/Pages/Default.aspx I ask simply out of curiosity. EDIT 2: Thanks for all the replies, but none of them were exactly what I was looking for. FYI, I solved the problem this way (but am still interested in knowing if there's a smoother way): public string GetWebAppRoot() { if(HttpContext.Current.Request.ApplicationPath == "/") return "http://" +

I know there is a very similar question here but I was hoping to get a better explination. Why would I ever use HttpContext.Cache instead of HttpRuntime.Cache if the HttpContext really uses the HttpRuntime.Cache behind the scenes? In the article Simulate a Windows Service using ASP.NET to run scheduled jobs Omar uses the HttpContext to store his cache items, but when Jeff Atwood Implemented it here he chose to use the HttpRuntime instead. Obviously in this particular situation it makes sense since since you don't have to do a web request to add the cache item back into the HttpContext. However

Context: .Net 3.5, C# I'd like to have caching mechanism in my Console application. Instead of re-inventing the wheel, I'd like to use System.Web.Caching.Cache (and that's a final decision, I can't use other caching framework, don't ask why). However, it looks like System.Web.Caching.Cache is supposed to run only in a valid HTTP context. My very simple snippet looks like this: using System; using System.Web.Caching; using System.Web; Cache c = new Cache(); try { c.Insert("a", 123); } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine("cannot insert to cache, exception:"); Console.WriteLine(ex); } and

I've been using NHibernate for a while now and have found from time to time that if I try to request two pages simultaniously (or as close as I can) it will occasionally error. So I assumed that it was because my Session management was not thread safe. I thought it was my class so I tried to use a different method from this blog post http://pwigle.wordpress.com/2008/11/21/nhibernate-session-handling-in-aspnet-the-easy-way/ however I still get the same issues. The actual error I am getting is: Server Error in '/AvvioCMS' Application. failed to lazily initialize a collection, no session or
