SecurityContextTokenServiceClient.IssueSecurityContextToken Method (SecurityToken)

Makes an unsigned request for a SecurityContextToken security token from a security token service. If the request is successful, an entropy value is returned in an <Entropy> element.

Namespace: Microsoft.Web.Services2.Security
Assembly: Microsoft.Web.Services2 (in microsoft.web.services2.dll)

Usage

'Usage
Dim issuerToken As SecurityToken
Dim returnValue As SecurityContextToken
Dim securityContextTokenServiceClient1 As SecurityContextTokenServiceClient
returnValue = securityContextTokenServiceClient1.IssueSecurityContextToken(issuerToken)

Syntax

'Declaration
Overloads Public Overridable Function IssueSecurityContextToken( _
    ByVal issuerToken As SecurityToken _
) As SecurityContextToken
public virtual SecurityContextToken IssueSecurityContextToken(
    SecurityToken issuerToken
);
public: SecurityContextToken^ IssueSecurityContextToken(
    SecurityToken^ issuerToken
);
public SecurityContextToken IssueSecurityContextToken(
    SecurityToken issuerToken
);
public function IssueSecurityContextToken(
     issuerToken : SecurityToken
) : SecurityContextToken;

Parameters

  • issuerToken
    The SecurityToken that encrypts the SOAP message sender's entropy value.

Return Value

The SecurityContextToken issued by the security token service.

Exceptions

Exception type Condition
System.ArgumentNullException

issuerToken is null.

System.ArgumentException

issuerToken does not support the encryption of SOAP messages.

TrustFault

The security token service did not return a response.

-or-

The response from the security token service is not signed.

-or-

The response contains an <Entropy> element and the entropy value is less than 16 bytes.

-or-

The response contains an <Entropy> element that is not encrypted using the SOAP message sender's entropy value.

Remarks

Because this overload does not sign the security token request, an exception is thrown if this request is sent to the SecurityContextTokenService security token service.

WSE generates the entropy value, encrypts it using the security token service's security token, and places it in an <Entropy> element within the security token request. If the request is successful, the security token service returns its entropy value. The SecurityContextTokenServiceClient class then generates the key for the SecurityContextToken using the entropy values of the SOAP message sender and the security token service.
