Caching Problem

[Aryan]

Hi,
I have problem related to Caching of data. I am reading large xml
file and putting this xml in dataset, since this dataset will contain
many datatable's inside. And each datatable might be big in data. Each
user will contain its seperate xml file, so when I create xml file for
each user, I am putting this xml DataSet in Cache object, but when I
try to populate my controls using Cache object, I am faching weired
problem. As some times it populates the controls and some times it
doesnt, although the xml files have been created for that user.
Along with this I am using same cache object name for every user.

So please tell me what could be the reason for cache is not able to
populate the controls on some time.???and what could be best usage for
concurrent users??Sessions or Cache??

Thanks in Advance.

The application cache object is best suited to data thats read once and keep
for a while, and share about! Where your cache object has the same name
("myDataSet") for example, each user will be overwriting the object and it
will likely give you problems.

So you should create the object using something unique, but then you have to
be careful that you dont overload your application memory with cached
objects. I think you need to reconsider how you manage the data in your
application.
