public System.Net.Authorization Authenticate (string challenge, System.Net.WebRequest request, System.Net.ICredentials credentials);
abstract member Authenticate : string * System.Net.WebRequest * System.Net.ICredentials -> System.Net.Authorization
Public Function Authenticate (challenge As String, request As WebRequest, credentials As ICredentials) As Authorization

Parameters

challenge
String

The authentication challenge sent by the server.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the Authenticate method. For a complete example refer to the AuthenticationManager class.

// Authenticate is the core method for this custom authentication.
// When an internet resource requests authentication, the WebRequest::GetResponse
// method calls the AuthenticationManager::Authenticate method. This method, in
// turn, calls the Authenticate method on each of the registered authentication
// modules, in the order they were registered. When the authentication is
// complete an Authorization object is returned to the WebRequest, as
// shown by this routine's retun type.
virtual Authorization^ Authenticate( String^ challenge, WebRequest^ request, ICredentials^ credentials )
{
   Encoding^ ASCII = Encoding::ASCII;
   
   // Get the username and password from the credentials
   NetworkCredential^ MyCreds = credentials->GetCredential( request->RequestUri, "Basic" );
   if ( PreAuthenticate( request, credentials ) == nullptr )
         Console::WriteLine( "\n Pre-authentication is not allowed." );
   else
         Console::WriteLine( "\n Pre-authentication is allowed." );

   
   // Verify that the challenge satisfies the authorization requirements.
   bool challengeOk = checkChallenge( challenge, MyCreds->Domain );
   if (  !challengeOk )
         return nullptr;

   
   // Create the encrypted string according to the Basic authentication format as
   // follows:
   // a)Concatenate username and password separated by colon;
   // b)Apply ASCII encoding to obtain a stream of bytes;
   // c)Apply Base64 Encoding to this array of bytes to obtain the encoded
   // authorization.
   String^ BasicEncrypt = String::Concat( MyCreds->UserName, ":", MyCreds->Password );
   String^ BasicToken = String::Concat( "Basic ", Convert::ToBase64String( ASCII->GetBytes( BasicEncrypt ) ) );
   
   // Create an Authorization object using the above encoded authorization.
   Authorization^ resourceAuthorization = gcnew Authorization( BasicToken );
   
   // Get the Message property which contains the authorization string that the
   // client returns to the server when accessing protected resources
   Console::WriteLine( "\n Authorization Message: {0}", resourceAuthorization->Message );
   
   // Get the Complete property which is set to true when the authentication process
   // between the client and the server is finished.

  // Verify that the challenge satisfies the authorization requirements.

  if (!challengeOk)
    return null;

  // Create the encrypted string according to the Basic authentication format as

  string basicToken = "Basic " + Convert.ToBase64String(ASCII.GetBytes(basicEncrypt));

  // Create an Authorization object using the encoded authorization above.

End Class

Remarks

The Authenticate method conducts the authentication process with the server and returns an Authorization instance to the AuthenticationManager.

Notes to Implementers

The AuthenticationManager calls the Authenticate(String, WebRequest, ICredentials) method on registered authentication modules to determine which module handles the challenge. If the authentication module cannot handle the challenge, the Authenticate(String, WebRequest, ICredentials) method must return null. If the authentication module encounters an error while conducting the authentication process, Authenticate(String, WebRequest, ICredentials) must throw an exception.
