We have more than 10 separate sites in one commerce server, and we need issu
e config and manage operation across sites in a non-web environment. For exa
mple, we need create one user in 4 sites at the same time. My question is ho
w to get CommerceContext object based on  site name?
Because our task is  independant to specific site, we can not create a comme
rce project  Visual studio.
Is it possible to do that?

Thanks

Think of CommerceContext as CommerceHttpContext (that's what we should have
called it).  CommerceContext and the HTTP Modules are only available within
a Web app.

That said, most of the BCLs can be used outside of HTTPContext.  Only some
parts of the order system (e.g. PipelineInfo) has some limitations that it
must be used within HTTPContext.

E.g. you can create a ProfileContext or CatalogContext and pass a
ConsoleDebugContext to the constructor.  Be sure you cache the instance of
these for the lifetime of the app - they are meant to be singletons as they
are expensive to create.
