I don't think it's possible to access the Session in Application_AuthenticateRequest

hi,
but i want to store this information only session wise

my requirement is:
on succusfully login i store the iPrinciple object containing the roles in the session and on each request in the Application_AuthenticateRequest, i want to get the roles from the session instead of hitting the data store everytime.

but in Application_AuthenticateRequest it is returning "HttpContext.Current.Session" means Session containter itself is null , because my check
" if(HttpContext.Current.Session["aa"]==null) "
is throwing the exception that "object reference is not set to instance of object"

Again, Session is null and will always be null in Application_AuthenticateRequest, find another way.
