Hi all,

I was having some trouble working out why, for a customer "Small Shopping Basket", subscribing to this event using:

CurrentShoppingCart.CartChanged += new CartChangedEventHandler(OnCartChanged);

... was not firing. After some brain time, I realised that the CurrentShoppingCart was always returning a new shopping cart. So, with one simple changed, all is good in the small shopping cart world.

In Mediachase.Store.Business.ShoppingCart, change:

public static ShoppingCart Instance
{
   get
   {
      if(HttpContext.Current.Items["StoreShoppingCart"] == null)
      {
         return new ShoppingCart();
      }
      return (ShoppingCart)HttpContext.Current.Items["StoreShoppingCart"];
   }
}

to

public static ShoppingCart Instance
{
   get
   {
      if(HttpContext.Current.Items["StoreShoppingCart"] == null)
      {
         HttpContext.Current.Items["StoreShoppingCart"] = new ShoppingCart();
      }
      return (ShoppingCart)HttpContext.Current.Items["StoreShoppingCart"];
   }
}

Hope this helps some of you.

Cheers,

Thank you, Tom, for the info. Any tips are appreciated by the community.

I was having a similar problem.  Good fix.

But what is the most appropriate way to obtain the current logged in customer in the ShoppingCart.cs class?
