SiteIdentityPermissionAttribute Class

Definition

Namespace:

System.Security.Permissions

Assembly:

System.Security.Permissions.dll

Caution

Code Access Security is not supported or honored by the runtime.

Allows security actions for SiteIdentityPermission to be applied to code using declarative security. This class cannot be inherited.

Remarks

Caution

Code Access Security (CAS) has been deprecated across all versions of .NET Framework and .NET. Recent versions of .NET do not honor CAS annotations and produce errors if CAS-related APIs are used. Developers should seek alternative means of accomplishing security tasks.

Site identity is only defined for code from URLs with the protocols of HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP. A site is the string between the "//" after the protocol of a URL and the following "/", if present, for example, www.fourthcoffee.com in the URL http://www.fourthcoffee.com/process/grind.htm. This excludes port numbers. If a given URL is http://www.fourthcoffee.com:8000/, the site is www.fourthcoffee.com, not www.fourthcoffee.com:8000.

Sites can be matched exactly, or by a wildcard ("*") prefix at the dot delimiter. For example, the site name string *.fourthcoffee.com matches fourthcoffee.com as well as www.fourthcoffee.com. Without a wildcard, the site name must be a precise match. The site name string * will match any site, but will not match code that has no site evidence.

Important

Starting with the .NET Framework 4, identity permissions are not used.

In the .NET Framework versions 1.0 and 1.1, demands on the identity permissions are effective even when the calling assembly is fully trusted. That is, although the calling assembly has full trust, a demand for an identity permission fails if the assembly does not meet the demanded criteria. In the .NET Framework version 2.0, demands for identity permissions are ineffective if the calling assembly has full trust. This assures consistency for all permissions, eliminating the treatment of identity permissions as a special case.

The scope of the declaration that is allowed depends on the SecurityAction that is used.

The security information declared by a security attribute is stored in the metadata of the attribute target and is accessed by the system at run time. Security attributes are used only for declarative security. For imperative security, use the corresponding permission class.

Constructors

SiteIdentityPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction)

Initializes a new instance of the SiteIdentityPermissionAttribute class with the specified SecurityAction.

Properties

Action	Gets or sets a security action. (Inherited from SecurityAttribute)
Site	Gets or sets the site name of the calling code.
TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)
Unrestricted	Gets or sets a value indicating whether full (unrestricted) permission to the resource protected by the attribute is declared. (Inherited from SecurityAttribute)

Methods

CreatePermission()	Creates and returns a new instance of SiteIdentityPermission.
Equals(Object)	Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetHashCode()	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
IsDefaultAttribute()	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class. (Inherited from Attribute)
Match(Object)	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
