Question

Is it possible to generate a new ID for the session using ASP.NET?

I want it to change when someone logs in to my website just before I set their initial session variables.

Answer 1

You can do this using the SessionIdManager class:

SessionIDManager manager = new SessionIDManager();

string newID = manager.CreateSessionID(Context);
bool redirected = false;
bool isAdded = false;
manager.SaveSessionID(Context, newID, out redirected, out isAdded);
