I'm developing a website which at one point has a hefty amount of data
processing to do. I delegate this to a separate thread and on the results
page do an auto-refresh every few seconds until the results are available.
In my thread I take a reference to the page that invoked the thread, so that
I can get access to the session object. The thread writes to the session to
indicate that it has finished. This all worked fine, until I decided to
switch from InProc to StateServer. Whilst I don't get any errors, it behaves
as though the session object my thread is referencing is different to the
one that my results page is referencing and my communications therefore
don't work any more.
So, my question is, what is the best way for a thread to get access to the
current session object?
(I'm sure it should be sooo easy but ....)
thanks in advance,
Brian.

Brian,
I am not sure if I understand you, however if I do.
I don't see the sence of what you are doing, you are creating probably a
bunch of overhead to tell the client that he has to watch what is mostly
done by a WaitCursor.
However your pages are stateless, which means that as soon that you do the
sent, the page is gone out of memory, with all that belongs to him except
the session information, his extra threads are left alone.
Maybe can you do what you want by creating an extra windowservice or
webservice which than can return the information because of a session.id
As I said, be aware that you are creating a bunch of overhead, where your
user has to wait for. A webserver is not a one to one operating process, it
should be able to handle an enormous amount of clients.
I hope this gives some idea's,

I don't mean to appear dense, but how does one implement a WaitCursor for a
web page? I've only seen it used on desktop applications (where session
isn't an issue anyway).
thanks,
Brian.
Brian,
AFAIK is in in most cases (there are exceptions) in ASPNET automatic when
the page is waiting for a postback.

Hi everyone
We're experiencing some serious anomalies with the scheduling of ASP
threads. I'd be interested to hear if anyone knows what algorithm is used
(e.g. simple round-robin, or something more sophisticated), and what
situations might perturb it. Even a hint as to what would be considered
normal scheduling might help.
The root of our problem is that we observed a normally well-behaved web

Hello!
I currently have a site online. I added more features to my datagrid page,
so users can update and stuff. I though I could just copy the aspx, aspx.vb
and the server page including the web config, and paste then on the server.
At c:\intepub\wwwroot\website.
But now I get a runtime error when I go to that page. What is the best way
to update a site after maiking modifications on the developer machine?
TIA

information across the code. One of the buttons the user clicked, take

I understand why threads should not depend on Context.Current as they

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
