Examples

The following code example defines a class that inherits from the ProfileBase to create a custom profile. The type of the custom profile is specified in the inherits attribute of the profile configuration element in the Web.config file for an application.

using System;
using System.Web.Profile;

namespace Samples.AspNet.Profile
{
  public class EmployeeProfile : ProfileBase
  {
    [SettingsAllowAnonymous(false)]
    [ProfileProvider("EmployeeInfoProvider")]
    public string Department
    {
      get { return base["EmployeeDepartment"].ToString(); }
      set { base["EmployeeDepartment"] = value; }
    }

    [SettingsAllowAnonymous(false)]
    [ProfileProvider("EmployeeInfoProvider")]
    public EmployeeInfo Details
    {
      get { return (EmployeeInfo)base["EmployeeInfo"]; }
      set { base["EmployeeInfo"] = value; }
    }
  }

  public class EmployeeInfo
  {
    public string Name;
    public string Address;
    public string Phone;
    public string EmergencyContactName;
    public string EmergencyContactAddress;
    public string EmergencyContactPhone;
  }
}

    <SettingsAllowAnonymous(False)> _

        Return MyBase.Item("EmployeeDepartment").ToString()
      End Get
      Set
        MyBase.Item("EmployeeDepartment") = value
      End Set
    End Property

    <SettingsAllowAnonymous(False)> _

        Return CType(MyBase.Item("EmployeeInfo"), EmployeeInfo)
      End Get
      Set
        MyBase.Item("EmployeeInfo") = value
      End Set
    End Property
  End Class

  Public Class EmployeeInfo
    Public Name As String
    Public Address As String
    Public Phone As String
    Public EmergencyContactName As String
    Public EmergencyContactAddress As String
    Public EmergencyContactPhone As String
  End Class

Remarks

The SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute class is used to identify whether a property of a custom profile implementation can be accessed if the user is an anonymous user. For information about enabling anonymous identification, see the documentation provided for the anonymousIdentification configuration element.

If no SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute is specified for a profile property, anonymous access of the profile property is not allowed.

A custom profile implementation is a class that inherits from the ProfileBase abstract class and defines properties for the user profile that are not specified in the profile configuration element. You can specify a custom user-profile type in the application's Web.config file with the inherits attribute of the profile configuration element as shown in the following example.

<configuration>  
 <connectionStrings> 
   <add name="SqlServices"  
        connectionString="Data Source=localhost;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=aspnetdb;" />  
 </connectionStrings>  
 <system.web>  
   <authentication mode="Forms" >  
     <forms loginUrl="login.aspx"  
            name=".ASPXFORMSAUTH" />  
   </authentication>  
   <authorization>  
     <deny users="?" />  
   </authorization>  
   <profile inherits="Samples.AspNet.Profile.EmployeeProfile"  
            defaultProvider="SqlProvider">  
     <providers>  
       <clear />  
       <add name="SqlProvider"  
            type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider"  
            connectionStringName="SqlServices"  
            description="SQL Profile Provider for Sample"/>  
       <add name="EmployeeInfoProvider"  
            type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider"  
            connectionStringName="SqlServices"  
            description="SQL Profile Provider for Employee Info"/>  
     </providers>  
     <properties>  
       <add name="GarmentSize" />  
     </properties>  
   </profile>  
 </system.web>  
</configuration>

Constructors

SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute(Boolean)

Creates a new instance of the SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute class and specifies whether to allow anonymous access to the associated profile property.

Properties

Allow	Gets a value indicating whether the associated property of a custom profile implementation can be accessed if the user is an anonymous user.
TypeId	When implemented in a derived class, gets a unique identifier for this Attribute. (Inherited from Attribute)

Methods

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()	Gets a value indicating whether the Allow property is set to the default value.
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)

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)	Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface. (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)	Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). (Inherited from Attribute)
_Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)	Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. (Inherited from Attribute)
