MembershipProvider.OnValidatingPassword Method

Raises the ValidatingPassword event if an event handler has been defined.

Namespace:  System.Web.Security
Assembly:  System.Web.ApplicationServices (in System.Web.ApplicationServices.dll)
protected virtual void OnValidatingPassword(
	ValidatePasswordEventArgs e
)

The OnValidatingPassword virtual method is used during the CreateUser, ChangePassword, and ResetPassword methods to raise the ValidatingPassword event if a MembershipValidatePasswordEventHandler has been specified. The e parameter is used to pass a ValidatePasswordEventArgs object to the MembershipValidatePasswordEventHandler event handler. When the ValidatingPassword event has completed, the properties of the ValidatePasswordEventArgs object supplied as the e parameter can be examined to determine whether the current action should be canceled and if a particular Exception, stored in the FailureInformation property, should be thrown.

For an example of a MembershipProvider implementation, see Implementing a Profile Provider.
