BinarySecurityToken Class

  • Article

Provides a base class for all implementations of binary security tokens, as defined in the WS-Security specification.

Namespace: Microsoft.Web.Services3.Security.Tokens
Assembly: Microsoft.Web.Services3 (in microsoft.web.services3.dll)

Usage

'Usage
Dim valueType As String
Dim binarySecurityToken1 As New BinarySecurityToken(valueType)

Syntax

'Declaration
MustInherit Public Class BinarySecurityToken
    Inherits SecurityToken

public abstract class BinarySecurityToken : SecurityToken

public ref class BinarySecurityToken abstract : SecurityToken

public abstract class BinarySecurityToken extends SecurityToken

public abstract class BinarySecurityToken extends SecurityToken

Remarks

Although the WSE natively supports X.509 certificates, user name tokens, and kerberos tickets, the WSE is flexible enough to allow you to use your own custom binary security credentials to sign and encrypt SOAP messages. To do so, create a class that derives from BinarySecurityToken . For details about creating a custom binary security token, see How to: Create a Class Representing a Custom Binary Security Token.
