storing session data in a separate in-memory cache?
What's mean of separate in-memory cache?

Please - don't start new posts for extensions to old ones. You're cluttering up the forums.

This topic means that you are storing the data in a separate process to the process your ASP.NET application runs in. The reason that you do this is because the InProc process is tied to the thread/application that created it. In other words, if your website is running on a multi-processor server then having InProc for your site is a bad idea because the in-proc session is per processor.

This was an adjunct question to a previous post, so should have been asked there or on the article. By creating a new thread, others who might have similar questions, have been deprived of seeing that these topics are linked.

struct question

Hi, im trying to get my head around structs. Whats the difference between using the following?

public struct aStruct
{
public int sId;
};

static void Main(string[] args)
{
Program prog = new Program();

aStruct theStruct;
theStruct.sId = 5;

or

aStruct theStruct = new aStruct();
theStruct.sId = 5;
}

Nothing really, the most important thing with structs is they're value types, i.e. if you did the following:

aStruct firstStruct = new aStruct();
firstStruct.sId = 5;
aStruct secondStruct = firstStruct;

then secondStruct contains a copy of firstStruct not a reference to it, i.e. you can change properties on secondStruct without changing firstStruct. If this were a class then changing secondStruct would change firstStruct as well.

To be honest I would use the second method because it is more explicit and clearer what you are trying to do, if you then decide to change the declaration of aStruct to a class rather than a struct then you don't have lots of NullReferenceExceptions popping up all over the code.

Thx alot, so say for example if i wrote the following:

public struct aStruct
{
public int sId;
};

static void Main(string[] args)
{
Program prog = new Program();
aStruct theStruct;
ArrayList list = new ArrayList();

theStruct.sId = 5;
list.Add(theStruct);

theStruct.sId = 6;
list.Add(theStruct);

theStruct.sId = 7;
list.Add(theStruct);
}

I would then add three objects of type theStruct to the list even though I didn't explicitly created them with new?

While Ed has given you the correct answer here, you should really try this out for yourself rather than relying on others. This is down to the fact that sometimes people give answers without really knowing what they are talking about. (Note - Ed is one of the ones who DOES know what he is talking about).

Never accept that you have been given the correct answer. Try it out, and make sure that it is the correct answer.

one clarification i wanted to make is that , when the user visit the web site in the web browser , after proving the authentication , the session values gets stored in web server or in the web bowser.

Session never gets stored on the browser. How could it?
