Determines whether an application should be executed and which set of permissions should be granted to it.
public:
System::Security::Policy::ApplicationTrust ^ DetermineApplicationTrust(ActivationContext ^ activationContext, System::Security::Policy::TrustManagerContext ^ context);
public System.Security.Policy.ApplicationTrust DetermineApplicationTrust (ActivationContext activationContext, System.Security.Policy.TrustManagerContext context);
abstract member DetermineApplicationTrust : ActivationContext * System.Security.Policy.TrustManagerContext -> System.Security.Policy.ApplicationTrust
Public Function DetermineApplicationTrust (activationContext As ActivationContext, context As TrustManagerContext) As ApplicationTrust
Parameters
- activationContext
- ActivationContext
The activation context for the application.
- context
- TrustManagerContext
The trust manager context for the application.
Returns
An object that contains security decisions about the application.
Examples
The following example shows an implementation of the DetermineApplicationTrust method for a custom trust manager. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the IApplicationTrustManager interface.
public ApplicationTrust DetermineApplicationTrust(ActivationContext appContext, TrustManagerContext context)
{
ApplicationTrust trust = new ApplicationTrust(appContext.Identity);
trust.IsApplicationTrustedToRun = false;
ApplicationSecurityInfo asi = new ApplicationSecurityInfo(appContext);
trust.DefaultGrantSet = new PolicyStatement(asi.DefaultRequestSet, PolicyStatementAttribute.Nothing);
if (context.UIContext == TrustManagerUIContext.Run)
{
string message = "Do you want to run " + asi.ApplicationId.Name + " ?";
string caption = "MyTrustManager";
MessageBoxButtons buttons = MessageBoxButtons.YesNo;
DialogResult result;
// Displays the MessageBox.
result = MessageBox.Show(message, caption, buttons);
if (result == DialogResult.Yes)
{
trust.IsApplicationTrustedToRun = true;
if (context != null)
trust.Persist = context.Persist;
else
trust.Persist = false;
}
}
return trust;
}
Public Function DetermineApplicationTrust(ByVal appContext As ActivationContext, ByVal context As TrustManagerContext) As ApplicationTrust Implements IApplicationTrustManager.DetermineApplicationTrust
Dim trust As New ApplicationTrust(appContext.Identity)
trust.IsApplicationTrustedToRun = False
Dim asi As New ApplicationSecurityInfo(appContext)
trust.DefaultGrantSet = New PolicyStatement(asi.DefaultRequestSet, _
PolicyStatementAttribute.Nothing)
If context.UIContext = TrustManagerUIContext.Run Then
Dim message As String = "Do you want to run " + asi.ApplicationId.Name + " ?"
Dim caption As String = "MyTrustManager"
Dim buttons As MessageBoxButtons = MessageBoxButtons.YesNo
Dim result As DialogResult
' Displays the MessageBox.
result = MessageBox.Show(message, caption, buttons)
If result = DialogResult.Yes Then
trust.IsApplicationTrustedToRun = True
If Not (context Is Nothing) Then
trust.Persist = context.Persist
Else
trust.Persist = False
End If
End If
End If
Return trust
End Function 'DetermineApplicationTrust
Remarks
The DetermineApplicationTrust method is called by the host to determine whether an application should be executed and which set of permissions it should be granted. DetermineApplicationTrust returns an ApplicationTrust object with a DefaultGrantSet property that contains a permission set representing the permissions to be granted to each assembly executing within the context of the application. The granted permissions do not apply to assemblies in the global assembly cache. The ApplicationTrust object also has an IsApplicationTrustedToRun property that the trust manager sets to indicate whether the application should be trusted. If the trust manager indicates that the application can be trusted, the host activates the application and grants its assemblies the set of permissions provided in the ApplicationTrust collection.
