CurrentCallUser

Returns the current call context user. The returned value is never null and returns fake user

Declaration

public static User CurrentCallUser { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
User

MemoryModel

Returns the memory utilization model for the application. This property is NOT configurable. It may be set at process entry point via a call to App.SetMemoryModel() before the app container spawns. Typical applications should not change the defaults. Some system service providers examine this property to allocate less cache and temp buffers in the memory-constrained environments

Declaration

public static Ambient.MemoryUtilizationModel MemoryModel { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Ambient.MemoryUtilizationModel

Random

Returns process-wide random generator instance

Declaration

public static RandomGenerator Random { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
RandomGenerator

UTCNow

Shortcut access to ExecutionContext.Application.TimeSource.UTCNow;

Declaration

public static DateTime UTCNow { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.DateTime

Methods

SetMemoryModel(Ambient.MemoryUtilizationModel)

Sets the memory utilization model for the whole app. This setting is NOT configurable. It may be set at process entry-point via a call to App.SetMemoryModel() before the app container spawns. Typical applications should not change the defaults. Some system service providers may examine this property to allocate less cache and temp buffers in the memory-constrained environments

Declaration

public static void SetMemoryModel(Ambient.MemoryUtilizationModel model)

Parameters
