How do i start and stop application state in ASP.NET

Question

What seems to be happening is on a request some values I have retrieved are being stored in application state, but when I make changes to the values, the old values are still in application state for a while before finally going.

I want a way to refresh the application state on each request.?

Answer 1

Use Application.Lock and Application.Unlock to ensure multiple users cannot overwrite others changes, and also to ensure users are using the correct Application values.
