Session variables

I am writing some library routines to use in my asp.net pages. They need to
access my session variables, but I don't know what namespaces/libraries to
access to make it work. Asp.net already does that for you.

How do I access Session variables from my objects?

What refererence (using...) do I need as well as what .dll do I need in my
make file?

Thanks,

Tom

Tom,

You can use the HttpContext class. If you use the static Current
property on the HttpContext class, it will return your current HttpContext.
You can then use the Session property on the HttpContext to access the
current session.

Hope this helps.

string whatever = (string) this.Context.Session["whatever"];

So in my Imports clause would I need:

imports System.Web.HttpContext

I also saw Imports System.Web.SessionState

If I put in the "imports System.Web.HttpContext", would I then do:

string whatever = (string) this.Session["whatever"];

Also, what .dll would I need in my make file - /r:system.web.dll and
/r:system.dll ?

Thanks,

Tom

system.web will do. One the namespace is available, the code will compile.
Otherwise it won't.
