SecurityTokenHandler.ReadToken Method

Definition

When overridden in a derived class, deserializes the specified XML to a token of the type processed by the derived class.

Overloads

ReadToken(String)

When overridden in a derived class, deserializes the specified string to a token of the type processed by the derived class.

ReadToken(XmlReader)

When overridden in a derived class, deserializes the XML referenced by the specified XML reader to a token of the type processed by the derived class.

ReadToken(XmlReader, SecurityTokenResolver)

When overridden in a derived class, deserializes the XML referenced by the specified XML reader to a token of the type processed by the derived class by using the specified token resolver.

ReadToken(String)

When overridden in a derived class, deserializes the specified string to a token of the type processed by the derived class.

public:
 virtual System::IdentityModel::Tokens::SecurityToken ^ ReadToken(System::String ^ tokenString);
public virtual System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken ReadToken (string tokenString);
abstract member ReadToken : string -> System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken
override this.ReadToken : string -> System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken
Public Overridable Function ReadToken (tokenString As String) As SecurityToken

Parameters

tokenString
String

The string to be deserialized.

Returns

The security token that was deserialized from the specified string.

Remarks

Important

Calling this method with untrusted data is a security risk. Call this method only with trusted data. For more information, see Validate All Inputs.

By default this method throws a NotImplementedException exception.

Override this method to provide functionality that can deserialize a security token from a string. If you override, this method, you should also override the SecurityTokenHandler.CanReadToken method.

Applies to

ReadToken(XmlReader)

When overridden in a derived class, deserializes the XML referenced by the specified XML reader to a token of the type processed by the derived class.

public:
 virtual System::IdentityModel::Tokens::SecurityToken ^ ReadToken(System::Xml::XmlReader ^ reader);
public virtual System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken ReadToken (System.Xml.XmlReader reader);
abstract member ReadToken : System.Xml.XmlReader -> System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken
override this.ReadToken : System.Xml.XmlReader -> System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken
Public Overridable Function ReadToken (reader As XmlReader) As SecurityToken

Parameters

reader
XmlReader

An XML reader positioned at the start element of the token.

Returns

The security token that was deserialized from the XML.

Examples

The following code shows how to override the ReadToken method to read a custom token from the specified XML reader. The code is taken from the Custom Token sample. This sample provides custom classes that enable processing of Simple Web Tokens (SWT). For information about this sample and other samples available for WIF and where to download them, see WIF Code Sample Index.

Remarks

Important

Calling this method with untrusted data is a security risk. Call this method only with trusted data. For more information, see Validate All Inputs.

By default this method throws a NotImplementedException exception.

Override this method to provide the logic to deserialize a security token from XML. If you override this method, you should also override the SecurityTokenHandler.CanReadToken method. Typically, in derived classes, if the method cannot deserialize the token from the referenced XML, it throws an XmlException.

Applies to

ReadToken(XmlReader, SecurityTokenResolver)

When overridden in a derived class, deserializes the XML referenced by the specified XML reader to a token of the type processed by the derived class by using the specified token resolver.

public:
 virtual System::IdentityModel::Tokens::SecurityToken ^ ReadToken(System::Xml::XmlReader ^ reader, System::IdentityModel::Selectors::SecurityTokenResolver ^ tokenResolver);
public virtual System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken ReadToken (System.Xml.XmlReader reader, System.IdentityModel.Selectors.SecurityTokenResolver tokenResolver);
abstract member ReadToken : System.Xml.XmlReader * System.IdentityModel.Selectors.SecurityTokenResolver -> System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken
override this.ReadToken : System.Xml.XmlReader * System.IdentityModel.Selectors.SecurityTokenResolver -> System.IdentityModel.Tokens.SecurityToken
Public Overridable Function ReadToken (reader As XmlReader, tokenResolver As SecurityTokenResolver) As SecurityToken

Parameters

reader
XmlReader

An XML reader positioned at the start element of the token.

tokenResolver
SecurityTokenResolver

A token resolver that contains out-of-band and cached tokens.

Returns

The security token that was deserialized from the XML.

Remarks

Important

Calling this method with untrusted data is a security risk. Call this method only with trusted data. For more information, see Validate All Inputs.

The default implementation ignores the tokenResolver parameter and delegates the call to the SecurityTokenHandler.ReadToken method.

Override this method to provide the logic to deserialize a security token from XML. If you override this method, you should also override the SecurityTokenHandler.CanReadToken method. Typically, in derived classes, if the method cannot deserialize the token from the referenced XML, it throws an XmlException.
