winforms static class to Web

Question

I have a winforms application that calls an assembly that has a static class. This class is big with user ,system and other configuration options.

I'm starting to port the application to Web. I want to reference the assembly, but the class is static, so, all users will have the same values and that can't happen.

Is there a way around this (maintaining the original asembly)

No.

You will have to change the code.

A static class is usually a helper class. You can still use that class methods with a few changes..

Simply make the class public and change all static methods to public. This should be a quick change.

While static variabes can be used in Web App, they are not thread-safe.

If you want to share variables across different users, try using the Application object.
