I'm still thinking about session variables :-)
Does anyone know the detail of how session variables are actually stored?
The question I'm trying to answer is:
Is it more efficient to store and retrieve multiple short strings :
a) in multiple small session variables
b) concatenated and stored as one large session variable
c) inserted into an array and stored in a session variable
d) it's all the same. Who cares?
Keeping in mind that for this application each piece of data will be
retrieved for every page.
I've read that storing a dictionary object in a session variable is bad
ews - something to do with ending up with thread in your apartment, or
something ;-)
What I'd really like to do is create an XML object and store that in a
session variable, but I'm guessing that would be pretty inefficient unless
it had quite a lot of data in it.
Any thoughts on the above appreciated.

I lean towards "D", however you should keep that amount stored as
small as you can in any method. Remember that it creates a copy of the
data for every session and the session may hang around for 20 minutes
after the person left the site. So you can eat up a lot of memory.
You could use Application Variables and would then only have one copy
of the data, however every user gets the same values which may not be
what you want.

Yes, the thread in the apartment issue is bad, especially with small
animals around :-], but seriously,..yes you do not want to do that.

Hi,
I'm trying to understand a situation where ASP seems to be "blocking" of
"queuing" requests. This is on a Win2K Advanced Server, with IIS5.
I've seen some posts (e.g.,
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=Tidy7IDbDHA.2108%40cpmsftngxa06.phx.gbl)
that indicate that ASP will queue up requests when they come in with the
same "session".

Hi,
We are in the process of designing an ASP.NET app, where a user will
enter some 'Customer ID' to be queried in the database. If the ID is
valid, several stored procedures will be called to populate multiple
webpages containing customer information. There isn't a one-to-one
correlation between the stored procedure and a webpage. In other
words, a webpage may have to refer to 1 or more DataTables to populate
itself. Therefore, a...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
