Authorization.ProtectionRealm Property
Gets or sets the prefix for Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) that can be authenticated with the Message property.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
The ProtectionRealm property contains a list of URI prefixes that the Message property can be used to authenticate. WebRequest and its descendants compare a URI to this list to determine if the Authorization is valid for a particular URI.
The following code example gets or sets the prefix for URIs that can be authenticated with the Message property.
Authorization * Authenticate(String* challenge, WebRequest * request, ICredentials* credentials)
{
try
{
String* message;
// Check if Challenge String* was raised by a site which requires 'CloneBasic' authentication.
if ((challenge == 0) || (!challenge->StartsWith(S"CloneBasic")))
return 0;
NetworkCredential* myCredentials;
if (dynamic_cast<CredentialCache*>(credentials) == 0)
{
myCredentials = credentials->GetCredential(request->RequestUri, S"CloneBasic");
if (myCredentials == 0)
return 0;
}
else
myCredentials = dynamic_cast<NetworkCredential*>(credentials);
// Message encryption scheme :
// a)Concatenate username and password seperated by space;
// b)Apply ASCII encoding to obtain a stream of bytes;
// c)Apply Base64 Encoding to this array of bytes to obtain our encoded authorization message.
message = String::Concat(myCredentials->UserName, S" ", myCredentials->Password);
// Apply AsciiEncoding to 'message' String* to obtain it as an array of bytes.
Encoding* ascii = Encoding::ASCII;
Byte byteArray[] = new Byte[ascii->GetByteCount(message)];
byteArray = ascii->GetBytes(message);
// Performing Base64 transformation.
message = Convert::ToBase64String(byteArray);
Authorization* myAuthorization =
new Authorization(String::Concat(S"CloneBasic ", message, __box(true)));
String* protectionRealm[] = new String*[1];
protectionRealm[0] =request->RequestUri->AbsolutePath;
myAuthorization->ProtectionRealm = protectionRealm;
return myAuthorization;
}
catch (Exception* e)
{
Console::WriteLine(S"The following exception was raised in Authenticate method: {0}", e->Message);
return 0;
}
};
