IsolatedStorageFile.GetMachineStoreForDomain Method

Definition

Obtains machine-scoped isolated storage corresponding to the application domain identity and the assembly identity.

C#
public static System.IO.IsolatedStorage.IsolatedStorageFile GetMachineStoreForDomain();

Returns

An object corresponding to the IsolatedStorageScope, based on a combination of the application domain identity and the assembly identity.

Exceptions

Sufficient isolated storage permissions have not been granted.

The store failed to open.

-or-

The assembly specified has insufficient permissions to create isolated stores.

-or-

The permissions for the application domain cannot be determined.

-or-

An isolated storage location cannot be initialized.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the GetUserStoreForDomain method. For the complete context of this example, see the IsolatedStorageFile overview.

C#
IsolatedStorageFile isoFile;
isoFile = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForDomain();

// Open or create a writable file.
IsolatedStorageFileStream isoStream =
    new IsolatedStorageFileStream(this.userName,
    FileMode.OpenOrCreate,
    FileAccess.Write,
    isoFile);

StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(isoStream);
writer.WriteLine(this.NewsUrl);
writer.WriteLine(this.SportsUrl);
// Calculate the amount of space used to record the user's preferences.
double d = isoFile.CurrentSize / isoFile.MaximumSize;
Console.WriteLine("CurrentSize = " + isoFile.CurrentSize.ToString());
Console.WriteLine("MaximumSize = " + isoFile.MaximumSize.ToString());
// StreamWriter.Close implicitly closes isoStream.
writer.Close();
isoFile.Dispose();
isoFile.Close();
return d;

Remarks

The same assembly code will use different isolated stores when used in the context of different applications.

GetMachineStoreForDomain is functionally equivalent to the following code:

C#
isoFile = IsolatedStorageFile.GetStore(IsolatedStorageScope.Assembly |
    IsolatedStorageScope.Domain | IsolatedStorageScope.Machine,
    null, null);

Different assemblies running within the same application domain always have distinct isolated stores.

Note

GetUserStoreForDomain will return an IsolatedStorageFile object without a quota if the application domain into which the assembly is installed does not have IsolatedStorageFilePermission. Later attempts to create an IsolatedStorageFile object using the IsolatedStorageFile object that does not have a quota will fail with an IsolatedStorageException.
