Question

I just wrote my first web service so lets make the assumption that my web service knowlege is non existant. I want to try to call a dbClass function from the web service. However I need some params that are in the session. Is there any way I can get these call these session variables from the webservice??

Answer 1

If you are using ASP.NET web services and you want to have a session environment maintained for you, you need to embellish your web service method with an attribute that indicates you require a session.

[WebMethod(EnableSession = true)] public void MyWebService() {     Foo foo;     Session['MyObjectName'] = new Foo();     foo = Session['MyObjectName'] as Foo; } 

Once you have done this, you may access session objects similar to aspx.
