Re: Using Session state to store objects

You'll need to do something like this:

SearchResultCollection ownerResults = Session["ownerResults"] as SearchResultCollection;

if (ownerResults != null)
{
// Code here
}

Using Session state to store objects

Benp - 81Consulting — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 09:18:49 GMT

I want to save an object, and make it available over several pages. So far it seems the best way for me to do this is to use sessions. However I can't find a way to store an object for the duration of a session. Below is some of the code

Fragment of Method 1

SearchResultCollection ownerResults = Code to return SearchResultCollection

Session["ownerResults"] = ownerResults;

Fragment of Method 2

SearchResultCollection ownerResults = Session["ownerResults"];

However, I get the following error.

Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type 'object' to 'System.DirectoryServices.SearchResultCollection'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

My question is, how can I store an object, to be used by the same page, or different page in the same session?

Thanks
