Examples

The following code example uses the GetCredential(Uri, String) method to return the NetworkCredential instance associated with the specified URI and authentication type.

   Console::WriteLine( "\nThe credentials are:" );
   Console::WriteLine( "\nUsername : {0} , Password : {1} , Domain : {2}", credential->UserName, credential->Password, credential->Domain );
}

void GetPage( String^ url, String^ userName, String^ password, String^ domainName )
{
   try
   {
      CredentialCache^ myCredentialCache = gcnew CredentialCache;

      // Dummy names used as credentials.
      myCredentialCache->Add( gcnew Uri( "http://microsoft.com/" ), "Basic", gcnew NetworkCredential( "user1","passwd1","domain1" ) );
      myCredentialCache->Add( gcnew Uri( "http://msdn.com/" ), "Basic", gcnew NetworkCredential( "user2","passwd2","domain2" ) );
      myCredentialCache->Add( gcnew Uri( url ), "Basic", gcnew NetworkCredential( userName,password,domainName ) );

      // Create a webrequest with the specified url.
      WebRequest^ myWebRequest = WebRequest::Create( url );

      // Call 'GetCredential' to obtain the credentials specific to our Uri.
      NetworkCredential^ myCredential = myCredentialCache->GetCredential( gcnew Uri( url ), "Basic" );
      Display( myCredential );

      // Associating only our credentials.
      myWebRequest->Credentials = myCredential;

      // Sends the request and waits for response.
      WebResponse^ myWebResponse = myWebRequest->GetResponse();

    Console.WriteLine("The credentials are: ")
    Console.WriteLine(ControlChars.Cr + "Username : {0} ,Password : {1} ,Domain : {2}", credential.UserName, credential.Password, credential.Domain)
End Sub

Remarks

The GetCredential(Uri, String) method searches the CredentialCache and returns the NetworkCredential instance for the specified URI and authorization type. If the CredentialCache contains no matching NetworkCredential instance, null is returned.

GetCredential uses the longest matching URI prefix in the cache to determine which set of credentials to return for an authorization type. The following table shows examples.

URI Prefix Matches
http://www.contoso.com/portal/news.htm Requests for the specific Web page news.htm.
http://www.contoso.com/portal/ Requests for all content in the portal path, except the page news.htm.
http://www.contoso.com/ Requests for all resources at www.contoso.com, except those in the portal path.

Public Function GetCredential (host As String, port As Integer, authenticationType As String) As NetworkCredential

Parameters

host
String

A String that identifies the host computer.

port
Int32

A Int32 that specifies the port to connect to on host.

authenticationType
String

A String that identifies the authentication scheme used when connecting to host.

Returns

A NetworkCredential or, if there is no matching credential in the cache, null.

Implements

Exceptions

host is null.

-or-

authType is null.

authType not an accepted value.

-or-

host is equal to the empty string ("").

port is less than zero.

Remarks

This method searches the CredentialCache and returns the NetworkCredential instance for the specified host, port, and authorization type. The host, port, and authType values passed to this method are case-insensitively compared to the values specified when the credential was added to the CredentialCache using the Add methods.

The supported values for authType are "NTLM", "Digest", "Kerberos", and "Negotiate".
