I need to use or stimulate a very simple session object inside my WCF app.

I simply need to store some values at the beginning of a call and I need access to these values while I go through some different methods of my service.

Asp.NET session would be very ideal to use for this so I need to find out what is available on a WCF app for storing such values.

Note: this is just a per call session, I don't need to retain this session between different calls from the client to service and such..

In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
