This walkthrough demonstrates how to use the Security Application Block to obtain a token for an authenticated user.
To reproduce the demonstration
Create the security cache by adding the following code.
ISecurityCacheProvider secCache = SecurityCacheFactory.GetSecurityCacheProvider("Caching Store Provider");
'Usage Dim secCache As ISecurityCacheProvider = SecurityCacheFactory.GetSecurityCacheProvider("Caching Store Provider")
Authenticate the user. The following code demonstrates how to authenticate a user using the System.Web.Security.Membership class.
IIdentity identity = null; if (Membership.ValidateUser("username", "password")) { identity = new GenericIdentity("username", Membership.Provider.Name); }
'Usage Dim identity As IIdentity = Nothing If (Membership.ValidateUser("username", "password")) Then identity = New GenericIdentity("username", Membership.Provider.Name) End If
Call the SaveIdentity method on the security cache object by adding the following code.
IToken token = null; if (identity != null) { token = secCache.SaveIdentity(identity); }
'Usage Dim token As IToken = Nothing If (Not identity Is Nothing) Then token = secCache.SaveIdentity(identity) End If
This stores the identity information and returns a token.
