Hi there,
I'm having a problem with a method which resides on a static class I have on
my ASP.NET application.
public static string FilterCenter(st ring fieldName)
{
string centers =
((User)System.W eb.HttpContext. Current.Session["userdata"]).Centers;
...some more code...
}
The point here is how I cast Session["userdata"] to the (User) type so I can
access the Centers property. This method works fine on my development
machine with the VS 2005 web server.
However, after deploying to the Windows 2003 server, I get this exception:
[NullReferenceEx ception: Object reference not set to an instance of an
object.]
That is, it seems that Session["userdata"] is now null. Again, this only
happens on the production IIS server.
So... am I doing something wrong here trying to access Session[] from a
static class? If not, why does it work on VS 2005 but fails on IIS 6?
Thanks in advance,
-Benton 3 1579

You have to be *really* careful with static classes in ASP.NET: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/893666

Ah yes, but you're the only person connected to it, so the fact that you're
using statics doesn't matter... :-)
either session is disabled on the server or the server is recycling. if
you use inproc sessions, you should always check for null, and have
recovery code.

Thanks for the advice. I've overcome this using a different approach. Any
clues why it works on VS 2005 intregrated web server but fails on IIS 6?
Same project, same web.config

Hi all,
I was wondering: Why isn't it possible to write "static classes". By
this I mean a class that will _never_ get instantiated, but will always
work on and with other static members of its class.
The class would in effect behave like a "classic" win32 dll and its
exported functions, only this time referred by
<classname>.<ExportedFunction>
I know (how) I can achieve the same results with a singleton, but why

Following on from the other discussion, I have to just check something out
with reference to disposal of resources held in static fields.
I have a Persistence Framework that is 'globally accessible'. In Delphi, I
would use a class of static methods to enforce the singleton, and I added
static fields to hold things like the database connections, etc.
This worked fine in Delphi because we have unit initialisation/finalisation
sections...

I'm seeing some very weird behavior and that might explain it. I'm not

I am creating some static classes with static methods and static variables,

Suppose an ASP.Net project contains a public static class with public
methods and members that are used throughout the application. Of course
being static, there is only copy of the class within the application.
Now suppose two users access the Web site simultaneously. Does each
user see his/her own single copy of the static class, or do they
share the class, thus creating a problem that can only be solved
if one use blocks the other...

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me why extension methods must be
declared on static classes. I mean, why not allowing them to be declared as
static methods in regular instance classes?
In case you are wondering, I am only curious to find out the reason for this
limitation. I don't really have a need to declare extension method on non
static classes. I am just curious.

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.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
