_cachedCustomer

How is _cachedCustomer field populated in WebWorkContext class?

Have a look at the GetCurrentCustomer method in WebWorkContext class

Hi,

Thanks for your response. I can see _cachedCustomer is set near the bottom of the method.

_cachedCustomer = customer;

How is it set at the top though?

  

if (_cachedCustomer != null)
                return _cachedCustomer;

Surely at this stage _cachedCustomer is always null??? I can't work out how it is populated.

It's null only for the first time this method is invoked. But it's not null once it's already been cached.

Sorry for asking stupid questions, but which line of code caches this variable? Or is the whole webworkcontext class cached?

Right. IWorkContext is instantiated per HTTP request. Have a look at the \Presentation\Nop.Web.Framework\DependencyRegistrar.cs file:

builder.RegisterType<WebWorkContext>().As<IWorkContext>().InstancePerHttpRequest();
