MustInherit Public Class SecurityTokenManager

public abstract class SecurityTokenManager implements ISecurityTokenManager
public abstract class SecurityTokenManager implements ISecurityTokenManager
Remarks
WSE uses security token managers to interact with security tokens. Security token managers typically derive from the SecurityTokenManager class, however it is possible to implement the ISecurityTokenManager interface directly.
To build a custom security token manager, either derive a class from SecurityTokenManager or create a class that implements the ISecurityTokenManager interface and register the class in the SOAP message receiver's configuration file using the <securityTokenManager> element. For more details about creating a custom security token manager, see How to: Create a Security Token Manager for a Custom Security Token. For more details about configuring a security token manager, see How to: Configure the Security Token Manager for a Custom Security Token.
