PassportIdentity.PassportIdentity

Initializes a new instance of the PassportIdentity class.

Syntax

public PassportIdentity()

Example

The following C# example displays a message to the user, depending on the authentication status of the user. The example creates the PassportIdentity object.

<%@ Page Language="C#"%>
<%@ Import Namespace = "System.Web.Security" %>
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Mysample - Exercise - CS</TITLE></HEAD>
<Script language="C#" runat="server">
 string sServer;
 string sthisURL;

 protected void Page_Load(Object src, EventArgs e) {
  sServer = Request.ServerVariables["SERVER_NAME"];
  sthisURL = Page.Request.Url.ToString();
 }
</Script>
<%
//Instantiate a PassportIdentity object.
//The first line casts the object to a PassportIdentity. The
//second line creates a new PassportIdentity object.
//Use either of the following two lines to create the object.

PassportIdentity oMgr = (PassportIdentity)User.Identity;
//PassportIdentity oMgr = new PassportIdentity();

//LogoTag2 allows the user to sign in or out.
Response.Write ("<DIV STYLE = 'position:absolute; right:50px'>" + oMgr.LogoTag2(sthisURL,3600,true,null,1033,false,null,-1,false) + "</DIV>");

if (oMgr.GetIsAuthenticated(3600,true,false))
{
 //Provide a welcome message, with the user's name, for an authenticated user.
 //Display the AuthenticationType for the authenticated user.
 Response.Write ("<br>Welcome " + oMgr.GetProfileObject("Firstname") + ". You are authenticated.");
}
else
{
 //Provide a message to an unauthenticated user.
 Response.Write ("You are not authenticated. Please click Sign in or exit.");
}
%>

Remarks

This method is the constructor for the PassportIdentity class. Use either of the means shown in the preceding example to create the object. The first line (PassportIdentity oMgr = (PassportIdentity)User.Identity) casts an Identity object to a PassportIdentity object. The second line (PassportIdentity oMgr = new PassportIdentity()) creates a new PassportIdentity object.
