Question

I’m working with ASP.Net MVC4, I customize my login, this is ok, I would like save this object USER and I can access from differents controllers and differents Areas. I was trying to defined this object as “static” but I can’t acces to values of object:

if (Servicio.ValidarUsuario())
            {
                string Mensaje = "";
                Models.AdmUsuario oAdmUsuario = new Models.AdmUsuario();
                oAdmUsuario.Au_codusuario = login.UserName;
                Servicio.RetornaEntidad<Models.AdmUsuario>(ref Mensaje, "admsis.adm_usuario", oAdmUsuario.getPk(), oAdmUsuario);
                ***Models.AdmUsuario.UserWeb = oAdmUsuario;***
                FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(login.UserName, false);                 
                Session["Modulo"] = null;
                Session["Menu"] = null;
                return RedirectToAction("index", "raMainReclamo", new { area = "Reclamos" });
            }

In the model I define:

public static AdmUsuario UserWeb;

But I can’t access to value.
Do you have any idea, how I can to access the values ​​of an object from different controllers in different areas?

Answer 1

You need a way to store the object between requests. You could put the object in Session Memory and pull it back out.

{
    // Other Code
    Session["AdmUsuario"] = oAdmUsuario;
    return RedirectToAction("index", "raMainReclamo", new { area = "Reclamos" });
}

Controller in Reclamos Area

public class raMainReclamoController : Controller
{
    public ActionResult Index() {
         var oAdmUsuario = Session["AdmUsuario"] as Models.AdmUsuario;

         // Other Code
    }
}

However, the a more standard approach would be to persist the object to a database and then pull it back out. You could read up on using Entity Framework to access a sql database. I like to use RavenDB for storage as it makes saving objects really easy.

** UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO COMMENTS **

This is just psuedo code as I don’t know what you are using to connect to postgres.

{
    // Other Code
    oAdmUsuario = postgresContext.Store(oAdmUsuario);
    postgresContext.SaveChanges();
    return RedirectToAction("index", "raMainReclamo", new { area = "Reclamos", id = oAdmnUsuario.Id });
}

Controller in Reclamos Area

public class raMainReclamoController : Controller
{
    public ActionResult Index(int id) {
         var oAdmUsuario = postgresContext.GetById<Models.AdmUsuario>(id);

         // Other Code
    }
