Use of Get Set property with Session Sate.

saurabh choudhary

Hi, I have recently started on C# and getting doubts. Can anyone help me out in understanding the below code, specialy the importance of get accessor with session. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

using System.Web;

using System.Web.SessionState;

using System.Collections.Generic;

public static class ExampleSession

{

private static HttpSessionState session { get { return HttpContext.Current.Session; } }

public static string UserName

{

get { return session["username"] as string; }

set { session["username"] = value; }

}

public static List ProductsSelected

{

get

{

if (session["products_selected"] == null)

session["products_selected"] = new List();

return (List)session["products_selected"];

}

Hello

Get : It is used when you get the value of an variable

Set : It is used when you assign a value o variable or objects

For Example :

When session being check for either null or not ,its call get request
else set request when we define value like session["ID"] = 1 ;

Thanks
