I am creating dynamic web pages according to the user inputs from a web
page.
For instance, a user typed in a text, I would want the text being the
source code of the dynamic page.
My question is: How could I access session variables from class that
derives from VirtualPathProv ider or VirtualFile or the control values of
previous web page?
I could not use query string or cookies due to the amount of the data.
I am using HostingEnvironm ent to retrieve application path information.
I guess there are some similar global instance that I might be able to
use to retrieve information for the request.
Thanks

Hi Charles,
The session is provided by the System.Web.Sess ionState.Sessio nStateModule
as one of the http modules pipeline. However, a VirtualPathProv ider or
VirtualFile is called at page compilation stage, at which moment the
modules are not initialized yet. Therefore you will not be able to use
Session in VirtualPathProv ider or VirtualFile.
Why not use HttpContext.Cur rent.Items to pass the information? Normally
it's used to pass data between different http modules, but I think you can
also use it to pass data to the dynamic web page.
Hope this helps.

I think HttpContext.Cur rent.Items will do the trick for me? However, how
could I deal with thread issue or do I need to worry about threading at all?
One thing I can think is to use a application variable flag to indicate
if some other session is trying to access HttpContext.Cur rent.Items. I
guess you might know better ways.
Thanks

Just more details about what I am planning to do.
Each session will only have one item in HttpContext.Cur rent.Items.
Therefore, the session ID will be the key for the item.
I embedded the session ID into the file name of dynamic page request so
that I can retrieve the session ID then retrieve the value I stored in
HttpContext.Cur rent.Items.
A number of sessions might add new items, retrieve items from
HttpContext.Cur rent.Items at the same time (Of course with different
keys), do I need to worry about concurrent access issue from different
threads or the threading issue is handled inside the directory object?
Thanks

Hi Charles,
The HttpContext.Cur rent is per-request, which means every worker thread has
its own Items collection; therefore different request/session will have
their own HttpContext.Cur rent. If you spawn a new background thread from
the worker thread that is currently handling the request, the background
thread will not have this HttpContext.Cur rent.
This also means a second request issued by the same user/session will also
have an brand new HttpContext.Cur rent. This is different from how session
state works across different requests. From your previous code, it seems
you're only saving the state at the beginning of each request and use it
from the dynamic web page, that's why I suggested to use it; otherwise it
will not work if you need to access previous state in
VirtualPathProv ider/VirtualFile.
Following are some reference articles you may find useful on
HttpContext/CallContext:

There must be millions of dynamically generated
html pages out there now, built by on-the-fly php code
(and jsp, perl cgi, asp, etc).
Programatic page generation is transparently useful.
But querying a database, negotiatinig lots of if-then-else logic
and echo'ing html code out on port 80 every time a
page is requested has to be a huge waste of resources.
Why not use that logic to print static html instead of dynamic?
