About Session Data

Hello.

I have created new controller with name CustomBuilderController.cs

Now in it's Index Action I want to set session variable.

So can any one tell me how can I do that and also I want to access that in other cshtml file as well as in other controller action.

So can any one help me step by step to do this.

I am stuck with this, so please help me.

Thanks

in your controller you can do this...

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["sessionString"] = sessionValue; 

You may want to avoid accessing session data within your view, you can do that in the controller as well and assign the value to the ViewBag or ViewData

ViewBag.SessionString = (string)System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session("sessionString") 

Now in your view you can use

@ViewBag.SessionString

What problem?  (The image is showing error "unreachable code")

In a controller you can use HttpContext.Session, but in other contexts (like a service), you may have to use the HttpContextAccessor, like this example in \Libraries\Nop.Services\Payments\PaymentService.cs

 var previousPaymentRequest = _httpContextAccessor.HttpContext.Session.Get<ProcessPaymentRequest>("OrderPaymentInfo");
