ClaimSet Class

Represents the collection of claims that are associated with an entity.

Namespace:  System.IdentityModel.Claims
Assembly:  System.IdentityModel (in System.IdentityModel.dll)
Syntax

'Usage

Dim instance As ClaimSet

'Declaration

<DataContractAttribute(Namespace := "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity")> _
Public MustInherit Class ClaimSet _
    Implements IEnumerable(Of Claim), IEnumerable
Remarks

After the ClaimSet class has been created, it cannot be changed.

Examining the content of a ClaimSet for particular types of claims is a common task when using claim-based authorization. To examine a ClaimSet for the presence of particular claims, use the FindClaims method. The method provides better performance than iterating directly over the ClaimSet.

Examples

Public Class MyServiceAuthorizationManager
    Inherits ServiceAuthorizationManager

    Protected Overrides Function CheckAccessCore(ByVal operationContext As OperationContext) As Boolean

        ' Extract the action URI from the OperationContext. Match this against the claims
        ' in the AuthorizationContext.
        Dim action As String = operationContext.RequestContext.RequestMessage.Headers.Action
        Console.WriteLine("action: {0}", action)

        ' Iterate through the various claim sets in the AuthorizationContext.
        Dim cs As ClaimSet

        For Each cs In operationContext.ServiceSecurityContext.AuthorizationContext.ClaimSets
            ' Examine only those claim sets issued by System.
            If cs.Issuer Is ClaimSet.System Then
                ' Iterate through claims of type "http://example.org/claims/allowedoperation".
                Dim c As Claim
                For Each c In cs.FindClaims("http://example.org/claims/allowedoperation", Rights.PossessProperty)
                    ' Write the claim resource to the console.
                    Console.WriteLine("resource: {0}", c.Resource.ToString())

                    ' If the claim resource matches the action URI then return true to allow access
                    If action = c.Resource.ToString() Then
                        Return True
                    End If
                Next c
            End If
        Next cs
        ' 
        ' If this point is reached, return false to deny access.
        Return False

    End Function
