[Mono-list] HttpContext in asp.net and webservice

[Peter Hagen]

Hi

I have a question about webservices and asp.net. I have build a 
framework in which I do the following:

// get the iCmsConnectionHandler, if available
if (HttpContext.Current != null && HttpContext.Current.Handler is 
iCmsConnectionHandler) {
	....
} else {
	...
}

The aspx page has the interface iCmsConnectionHandler. This works 
perfectly. The object which is called doesn't know anything about the 
object which calls him. Throught this methode I can store my database 
connection in the page object, cause the Handler is the page object.

Now I'm creating a webservice, and I want to do the same kind of 
construction. But when I test HttpContext.Current.Handler for the 
iCmsConnectionHandler it returns false. The handler is the type:

System.Web.Services.Protocols.HttpSoapWebServiceHandler

Is there a way to get a reference to my webservice object throught the 
HttpContext object? or in any other way?

Also, I checked the mono docs, but I can't find the 
HttpSoapWebServiceHandler anywhere.

thanx in advance
