IdentityVerifier Class
An abstract base class that can be implemented to verify an expected identity against an authorization context that represents a remote endpoint, or to create an identity from an endpoint address.
Namespace: System.ServiceModel.Security
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)
The IdentityVerifier type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | CheckAccess | Implements a method to verify an identity. |
| CreateDefault | Creates a default instance of this class. |
| Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| TryGetIdentity | Tries to create an identity from an endpoint. |
The WCF infrastructure calls the TryGetIdentity method first to retrieve the service's identity from the message. Next, the infrastructure calls the CheckAccess method with the returned EndpointIdentity and AuthorizationContext.
