Re: Global datasets

David,

From what I can tell, you're confusing "Global" with "Cached" or "Session"
objects... Are you trying to building a dataset object once, then have
subsequent page refreshes use the cached object?

I punched "ASP.Net session objects" into google and got this link straight
away which goes into the details a bit more...
http://www.aspfree.com/c/a/ASP.NET/Application-and-Session-Objects-in-ASP.NET/

If this is not what you want to do, or you want more help on it, let me
know.
Thanks.
Dan.

Hi,

using c#, 1.1

I know that we are not supposed to use global variables etc. in c#

I am having a problem, but not sure how to resolve. I did have another
post
here, but may have over confused things, so I will start afresh.

An example of what I want to do...

namespace MyDataSet
{
public class MyDSClass
{
public DataSet MyDS
{
// Do the dataset stuff.
return MyData;
}
}
}


I want to be able to instantiate the above code only once per page load
and
return a dataset.

in my page...

using MyDataSet;
namespace MyPage
{
public class MyPageClass : System.Web.UI.Page
{
private void Page_Load(object sender, eventargs e)
{
// I need to open the dataset created in the MyDSClass, without
re-instantiating it. If it needs to re-instantiate, then only do it once.

MyDataGrid.DataSource = MyDS;
MyDataGrid.DataBind();
}
}
}

So, the above code wants to use the dataset, but not have to create it. If
it has to be created, then I need to do it, but then other controls that
use
it should not have to re-create it once it has re-created.

using MyDataSet;
namespace MyUC
{
public class MyPageClass : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
private void Page_Load(object sender, eventargs e)
{
// I need to open the dataset created in the MyDSClass, without
re-instantiating it. If it needs to re-instantiate, then only do it once.

MyUCDataGrid.DataSource = MyDS;
MyUCDataGrid.DataBind();
}
}
}


What I am trying to avoid is to have to go to the database each time MyDS
is
needed. When the page is run, I only want to have to go to the database
once,
to build my dataset. I want to be able to use that dataset in the page, or
control that the page hosts.

How can I make my dataset "global" and how do I then view the "global"
dataset in each control without creating a new dataset each time it is
required?

All help is appreciated. Please do ask me questions if needed so that I
can
get this resolved.

Regards,
Dave Colliver.
