    <p>I am implementing my first REST service in .NET 4 and have encountered something unexpected. It seems that I do not understand the underlining workings of Microsoft's ServiceModel, but could not find the answer in the traditional way.</p> <p>To implement my web service I was following the steps in this tutorial: <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/endpoint/archive/2010/01/06/introducing-wcf-webhttp-services-in-net-4.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/endpoint/archive/2010/01/06/introducing-wcf-webhttp-services-in-net-4.aspx</a></p> <p>The service works. What surprised me was that Application_BeginRequest and Application_EndRequest in Global.asax are called by different threads. Looking at stack trace it appears that these threads are based in some kind of thread pool.</p> <p>Without doing some refactorings this is a problem for us since we were always assuming that a single request would always run on the same thread, due to which we were keeping some variables stored in the thread local storage. The variables are initialized in Application_BeginRequest and released in Application_EndRequest. It appears that with ServiceModel this is not the right approach.</p> <p>My questions are:</p> <ol> <li>Can I make any assumptions about which threads are running my code when I am using ServiceModel?</li> <li>Is there any way to restrict the execution to a single thread? Would this be bad for any reason?</li> <li>What is the right way of storing a variable for the duration of request when using ServiceModel?</li> </ol> <p>Thank you.</p>

    1. COAn update, to the initial question. Its one thread calling Application_BeginRequest and a different thread running the service code and executing Application_EndRequest. Changing ServiceBehavior params did not do anything. Any help would be much appreciated.

    2. COSounds like you're using asp.net compatibility stuff, or attempt to. Have you tried implementing your stuff as message dispatchers, or any other wcf extension point (instead of using asp.net)?

    3. CO@Simon Svensson I was following Microsoft's tutorial http://blogs.msdn.com/b/endpoint/archive/2010/01/06/introducing-wcf-webhttp-services-in-net-4.aspx. Which does appear to use asp.net compatibility. What would be different if the other approach is used? Is there a good place I could read up on it? Thanks!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
