public static void AddHttpSessionStateToContext (System.Web.HttpContext context, System.Web.SessionState.IHttpSessionState container);

static member AddHttpSessionStateToContext : System.Web.HttpContext * System.Web.SessionState.IHttpSessionState -> unit

Public Shared Sub AddHttpSessionStateToContext (context As HttpContext, container As IHttpSessionState)

Parameters

context: HttpContext

Examples

The following code example shows the handler for the AcquireRequestState event in a custom session-state module. The custom module retrieves existing session information or creates new session information and uses the AddHttpSessionStateToContext method to add it to the HttpContext of the current request. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the SessionStateUtility class.

//
// Event handler for HttpApplication.AcquireRequestState
//

private void OnAcquireRequestState(object source, EventArgs args)
{
    HttpApplication app = (HttpApplication)source;
    HttpContext context = app.Context;
    bool isNew = false;
    string sessionID;
    SessionItem sessionData = null;
    bool supportSessionIDReissue = true;

    pSessionIDManager.InitializeRequest(context, false, out supportSessionIDReissue);
    sessionID = pSessionIDManager.GetSessionID(context);

    if (sessionID != null)
    {
        try
        {
            pHashtableLock.AcquireReaderLock(Int32.MaxValue);
            sessionData = (SessionItem)pSessionItems[sessionID];

            if (sessionData != null)
               sessionData.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(pTimeout);
        }
        finally

Remarks

The AddHttpSessionStateToContext method is used by a session-state module to apply session data to the current request. This occurs during the AcquireRequestState event at the beginning of a request. Session data for the current request is either retrieved for an existing session or created for a new session. The session data is then encapsulated in an IHttpSessionState implementation instance, which is passed to the AddHttpSessionStateToContext method along with the current HttpContext. The supplied session data is then made available to application code through the Session property of the current context.
