Persisting Context

For Revolver version 3+

Revolver is intended to be used by developers during development. With each rebuild of the developers solution the application will restart, causing the Revolver context to be lost.

To overcome this issue, Revolver has the option of storing the context of a session on disk so the context is not lost when the application restarts.

This option is enabled by default and is controlled by the Revolver.PersistContextOnDisk setting in the App_Config\Include\Revolver.UI.config configuration patch file. If you don't want to use this feature, just change the setting to false.

The App_Config\Include\Revolver.UI.config file also contains a cleanup agent to remove context files which are older than 8 hours.
