IAuthenticationModule Interface

Definition

Provides the base authentication interface for Web client authentication modules.

public interface class IAuthenticationModule
public interface IAuthenticationModule
type IAuthenticationModule = interface
Public Interface IAuthenticationModule

Examples

The following example creates a customized authentication class by implementing the IAuthenticationModule interface. For a complete example refer to the AuthenticationManager class.

// The CustomBasic class creates a custom Basic authentication by implementing the
// IAuthenticationModule interface. In particular it performs the following
// tasks:

Remarks

The IAuthenticationModule interface defines the properties and methods that custom authentication modules must use.

Authentication modules conduct the entire authentication process with a server, responding to an authentication challenge as appropriate. This process may consist of requests to an authentication server separate from the resource server, as well as any other activities required to properly authenticate a request for a URI.

Custom authentication modules should implement the IAuthenticationModule interface and then register with the AuthenticationManager.Register method. Authentication modules are also registered at program initialization by reading the configuration file.

Properties

AuthenticationType

Gets the authentication type provided by this authentication module.

CanPreAuthenticate

Gets a value indicating whether the authentication module supports preauthentication.

Methods

Authenticate(String, WebRequest, ICredentials)

Returns an instance of the Authorization class in response to an authentication challenge from a server.

PreAuthenticate(WebRequest, ICredentials)

Returns an instance of the Authorization class for an authentication request to a server.
