I tried using that, but when working with my Windows App accessing the DLL,
the HttpContext.Current.Session resolves to Nothing. Is there some way to
initialize it? When I had my code working with just HttpContext.Current, I
needed to put the following line at the start of my Windows app:
HttpContext.Current = New HttpContext(Nothing, Nothing)
to initialize it, so to speak (I imagine this is explicitly doing what, in a
way, the environment is doing for my ASP.NET program). I don't know what to
do to initialize HttpContext.Current.Session at the start of my Windows app,
though.

I have an ASP.NET program that references a VB.NET DLL. I had originally
planned for my DLL to put things in the HttpContext.Current collection so
that the ASP.NET can access them throughout an entire session (according
to a tip I saw on a website somewhere), but it turns out that it only lasts
for the current page request. If another page is requested, the contents of
HttpContext.Current are cleared. Except for the lack of proper scope,
HttpContext.Current gives me the functionality that I need.
Is there another class I can throw this stuff into, similar to the way
HttpContext.Current works, that will let the objects last for the entire
session and not just the current request? In ASP.NET there's a Session
class which has the right scope, but I don't know how -- or even if it's
possible -- to access that class from by VB.NET DLL.
