Anonymous Profiles ?

[Sagaert Johan]

Hi

I would like to know where Anonymous Profiles are stored, are the stored on
the sql server or can the storage be in a cookie ?

Correct me if i am wrong but i think Anonymous Profiles are the only way to
use strongly typed variableles to use in a session.
For now i put my variables in a session object and cast them back into the
class on postback.

Huh? You don't need Anonymous Profiles to store certain
objects in session. The two are not related.

I would think long and hard about whether you "have"
to store complex types in session or whether you just
think you "want" to. If it can be avoided without much
hassle, you are better off doing so. This, of course, is
based largely on expected volume of traffic and available
server memory. If neither are a concern, then do whatever
you want. If either could be a future concern, then give
some consideration to using a wrapper class to access your
simple/value types stored in session.

ok i was a bit confused and i tought that a could save profile data into a
session variable instead of in and sql db .

I stick to using the session object to store my temporary (web cart )data .
