Remarks
The SPHttpApplication class is declared in the Global.asax file at the root of the virtual directory for the Windows SharePoint Services application.
You do not normally create SPHttpApplication objects with your own code. The first time a Windows SharePoint Services page is requested, a SPHttpApplication object is automatically created to process the request. After the request is processed, the object remains in a pool of SPHttpApplication objects until the application itself is restarted. When additional requests for pages or resources are received, an object in the pool is used to handle them. If all objects in the pool are busy, a new one is created and added to the pool.
SPHttpApplication overrides the GetVaryByCustomString and Init methods; and it adds RegisterGetVaryByCustomStringHandler and DeregisterGetVaryByCustomStringHandler methods. Otherwise, it is identical to HttpApplication.
