This is a heads up for any one that is used to auto link static libraries using project dependencies.
VS 2010 changed the game by adding a new step that is necessary in order to auto link static libraries.
It is not enough to specify project dependencies as we used to do in older versions of Visual Studio.
To setup auto linking go to Project/Properties/Common Properties/Framework and References/Add new reference.

If you are trying to access an ASP.NET Session object from inside a static function you will encounter error CS0120:
"An object reference is required for non static field, method, or property... "
The problem is that the Session object is a non static member of the Page/Control class you are using.
When you are inside a static function you do not have access to non static members of your class.
Example:
// this function is ok inside a page or control
void testFunc()
{
Session["test"] = "testString";
}
// this function will produce an error inside a page or control
static void testStaticFunc()
{
Session["test"] = "testString";
}
The solution to the problem is to access the Session object from another static object/function that has access to the current Session object.
Enter HttpContext.Current.Session -> http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httpcontext_members.aspx
The Session object obtained from HttpContext can be used from inside a static function since HttpContext.Current is a static property.
Here is an example of how to use it:
// this function is ok inside a page or control
static void testStaticFunc()
{
HttpContext.Current.Session["test"] = "testString";
}
