Session is null in ashx handler

[Jan Kucera]

Hi,
why is session object null if the ashx file is requested? How can I force
to create session when the request is to custom handler?

Thanks,
Jan

At what point are you trying to get the session?
For instance, it wouldn't be available inside of a constructor or a finalizer

Did you inherit from System.Web.SessionState.IRequiresSessionState ?

Yes, that was the point as I found on the web later. Sorry for the FAQ, the
answer was easier than I thought it would be.
