System.IdentityModel.Tokens::GenericXmlSecurityToken
Assembly: System.IdentityModel (in System.IdentityModel.dll)
The GenericXmlSecurityToken type exposes the following members.
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | GenericXmlSecurityToken | Initializes a new instance of the GenericXmlSecurityToken class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | AuthorizationPolicies | Gets the collection of authorization policies for this security token. |
![]() | ExternalTokenReference | Gets a security key identifier clause that references this security token when this security token is not included in the SOAP message in which it is referenced. |
![]() | Id | Gets a unique identifier of the security token. (Overrides SecurityToken::Id.) |
![]() | InternalTokenReference | Gets a security key identifier clause that references this security token when this security token is included in the SOAP message in which it is referenced. |
![]() | ProofToken | Gets the proof token for the security token. |
![]() | SecurityKeys | Gets the cryptographic keys associated with the proof token. (Overrides SecurityToken::SecurityKeys.) |
![]() | TokenXml | Gets the XML that is associated with the security token. |
![]() | ValidFrom | Gets the first instant in time at which this security token is valid. (Overrides SecurityToken::ValidFrom.) |
![]() | ValidTo | Gets the last instant in time at which this security token is valid. (Overrides SecurityToken::ValidTo.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | CanCreateKeyIdentifierClause<T> | Gets a value that indicates whether this security token is capable of creating the specified key identifier clause. (Overrides SecurityToken::CanCreateKeyIdentifierClause<T>().) |
![]() | CreateKeyIdentifierClause<T> | Creates the specified key identifier clause. (Overrides SecurityToken::CreateKeyIdentifierClause<T>().) |
![]() | 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.) |
![]() | MatchesKeyIdentifierClause | Returns a value that indicates whether the key identifier for this instance is equal to the specified key identifier. (Overrides SecurityToken::MatchesKeyIdentifierClause(SecurityKeyIdentifierClause).) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ResolveKeyIdentifierClause | Gets the key for the specified key identifier clause. (Inherited from SecurityToken.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns the current object. (Overrides Object::ToString().) |
Use the GenericXmlSecurityToken class when you receive a token over the wire that is not defined in a specification or there is no way for you to determine the type of the security token. For example, in a federation scenario when you send a Request Security Token (RST) to a Security Token Service (STS) you do not always know the type of the security token returned by the STS. In such cases, you can use a GenericXmlSecurityToken to store the security token as XML along with its internal and external references.
Use the GenericXmlSecurityToken class to define claims using XML when one of the built-in security tokens does not suffice. Other security tokens can define their claims using XML, however the GenericXmlSecurityToken security token generically allows a security token to have an application-defined set of XML.
