Hi,

 I've used this code to prevent simultaneous logons:

                        Dim strConCat As String = e.User.Username
                        Dim strUser As String = Convert.ToString(Cache(strConCat))

                        If strUser Is Nothing Or strUser.Equals([String].Empty) Then

                            Dim SessTimeOut As New TimeSpan(0, 0, Session.Timeout, 0, 0)

                            Cache.Insert(strConCat, strConCat, Nothing, DateTime.MaxValue, SessTimeOut, CacheItemPriority.NotRemovable, Nothing)
                         

           ' rest of the code for user login

 

                        Else
                            AddModuleMessage("MultipleLoginFailed", ModuleMessageType.RedError, True)
                        End If

 

It works fine, but cache object is not destroyed when i logout, or close browser, it's still there until SessTimeOut. Is there some configuration for cache in DNN for this to work, or I'm doing something wrong?

 

Thanks!

Cache is not a per session item. you would need to insert code on logoff to actually remove the cache entry.

Thanks for reply...

Problem is when user close browser. I figured cache can be cleared, every few minutes, and delete unused cache items, like for the user who closed browser. Is this possible?

Web applications are stateless by nature, if a user closes their browser, your application will not know it.

The only real way to do anything for that scenario is to rely on the cache timeout to remove the value.
