AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider.GetAllRoles Method

Definition

Gets a list of all the roles for the application.

public:
 override cli::array <System::String ^> ^ GetAllRoles();
public override string[] GetAllRoles ();
override this.GetAllRoles : unit -> string[]
Public Overrides Function GetAllRoles () As String()

Returns

String[]

A string array containing the names of all the roles stored in the authorization-manager policy store for a particular application.

Exceptions

The configured applicationName was not found.

-or-

The configured scopeName was not found.

-or-

The authorization-manager runtime is not installed on the server.

The connectionStringName attribute references a connection string to a file that does not exist.

The AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider instance is configured with a file-based policy store, and read access to the file is not allowed at the current trust level.

Examples

The following code example uses the GetAllRoles method to get the list of roles for an application and bind the results to a System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridView control. For an example of a Web.config file that enables role management, see AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider.
