How to access Session in .ashx file?
In the ashx.cs file, also "implement" the interface System.Web.SessionState.IReadOnlySessionState
or System.Web.SessionState.IRequiresSessionState
.
You don't have to implement any method, just the presence of this makes the Session available (in readonly or read/write mode), through context.Session
.
The header would look like:
public class MyHandler: IHttpHandler, System.Web.SessionState.IReadOnlySessionState
In aspx file:
Session.Add("filename", "Test.txt");
After you have set session value in aspx file. Use following to get the value in ashx file.
In ashx file:
public class ImageHandler : IHttpHandler, System.Web.SessionState.IRequiresSessionState
{
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
string Name = "";
if (context.Session["filename"] != null)
Name = context.Session["filename"].ToString();
}
}
