I am interested in the best practice of the following scenario. I have a CustomAction method that hits a web service and returns some information that I use to populate a combo box. Later in the install process in another CustomAction method, I need to access some of the meta data returned from that first web service call.
In the first method, I create a List that is a public static member of my CustomAction class. In my second method when I access the list its empty.
My thoughts were to serialize it using xaml serialization into a session variable then deserialize it in my second method.
Am I way off here? Is there a better way?
