Namespace:  System.ServiceModel
Assembly:  System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property Security As BasicHttpSecurity

public BasicHttpSecurity Security { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.ServiceModel.BasicHttpSecurity
The BasicHttpSecurity that is used with this binding. The default value is None.

Examples

            Dim bDefaultHttpBinding As New BasicHttpBinding()
            'Output txtSecurityMode: None
            Dim txtDefaultSecurityMode As String = bDefaultHttpBinding.Security.Mode.ToString()

            Dim bTHttpBinding As New BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.Transport)
            'Output txtSecurityMode: Transport
            Dim txtTSecurityMode As String = bTHttpBinding.Security.Mode.ToString()

            Dim bTOHttpBinding As New BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.TransportCredentialOnly)
            'Output txtSecurityMode: TransportCredentialOnly
            Dim txtTOSecurityMode As String = bTOHttpBinding.Security.Mode.ToString()


            BasicHttpBinding bDefaultHttpBinding = new BasicHttpBinding();
            //Output txtSecurityMode: None
            string txtDefaultSecurityMode = bDefaultHttpBinding.Security.Mode.ToString();

            BasicHttpBinding bTHttpBinding = new BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.Transport);
            //Output txtSecurityMode: Transport
            string txtTSecurityMode = bTHttpBinding.Security.Mode.ToString();

            BasicHttpBinding bTOHttpBinding = new BasicHttpBinding(BasicHttpSecurityMode.TransportCredentialOnly);
            //Output txtSecurityMode: TransportCredentialOnly
