RolePrincipal Class

Definition

Represents security information for the current HTTP request, including role membership. This class cannot be inherited.

Remarks

The RolePrincipal object implements the IPrincipal interface and represents the current security context for the HTTP request.

When role management is enabled (see Roles), the RoleManagerModule assigns a RolePrincipal object to the User property of the CurrentHttpContext.

The RolePrincipal class exposes the security identity for the current HTTP request and additionally performs checks for role membership. If CacheRolesInCookie is true, then the RolePrincipal object manages the cached list of roles and looks up role membership for the current user in the cached list first, then the role Provider. If CacheRolesInCookie is false, the RolePrincipal object always looks up role membership using the role provider.

The RolePrincipal object encrypts and decrypts role information cached in the cookie identified by the CookieName based on the CookieProtectionValue.

Constructors

RolePrincipal(IIdentity)

Instantiates a RolePrincipal object for the specified identity.

RolePrincipal(IIdentity, String)

Instantiates a RolePrincipal object for the specified identity with role information from the specified encryptedTicket.

RolePrincipal(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)

Initializes a new instance of the RolePrincipal class using information that is contained in the specified SerializationInfo object and using the specified streaming context.

RolePrincipal(String, IIdentity)

Instantiates a RolePrincipal object for the specified identity using the specified providerName.

RolePrincipal(String, IIdentity, String)

Instantiates a RolePrincipal object for the specified identity using the specified providerName and role information from the specified encryptedTicket.

Properties

IssueDate

Gets the date and time that the roles cookie was issued.

ProviderName

Gets the name of the role provider that stores and retrieves role information for the user.

Version
