Using ASP.NET session state with Silverlight (PRISM)
- by Jon Andersen
Hi,
The scenario:
I have a PRISM application developed in Silverlight (4), and I'm using a ASP.NET server side application to host several web-services (which, in turn, accesses WCF-services, but that's not really important here). The Silverlight application must be able to call the web services cross-domain (meaning that the web services isn't necessarily on the same server hosting the silverlight application).
The Silverlight application consists of several modules, each accessing the ASP.NET web-services.
I do not have much experience with Silverlight and PRISM, but as far as I can see, this is not a very unusual scenario...
The problem:
My challange is, that when 2 different modules access the web-services, I get 2 new sessions on the web-server. I would have thought that since both modules live on the same HTML-page (and then also in the same browser session), they would get the same session on the web-server...?
I have tried to make the web-service Proxy-client globally available in the container (using Unity), by registering an instance (using Container.RegisterInstance), and then getting this instance whenever a module needs to make a web-service call (using Container.Resolve), but this doesn't seem to help.
However, any calls made within the same module always gets the same session on the server.
Can anyone see what I'm missing here...?
Thanks!
Jon
