public ref class Saml2SecurityToken : SecurityToken

Constructors

	Name	Description
	Saml2SecurityToken(Saml2Assertion^)	Initializes a new instance of the Saml2SecurityToken class using the specified SAML assertion.
	Saml2SecurityToken(Saml2Assertion^, ReadOnlyCollection<SecurityKey^>^, SecurityToken^)	Initializes a new instance of the Saml2SecurityToken class using the specified SAML assertion, cryptographic keys and issuer token.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Assertion	Gets the SAML assertion for this security token.
	Id	Gets a unique identifier of the security token. (Overrides SecurityToken::Id.)
	IssuerToken	Gets the security token of the issuer.
	SecurityKeys	Gets the cryptographic keys associated with the security token.(Overrides SecurityToken::SecurityKeys.)
	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.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	CanCreateKeyIdentifierClause<T>()	Gets a value indicating whether this security token is capable of creating the specified key identifier. (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 the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance.(Inherited from Object.)
	MatchesKeyIdentifierClause(SecurityKeyIdentifierClause^)	Returns a value indicating 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(SecurityKeyIdentifierClause^)	Gets the key for the specified key identifier clause.(Inherited from SecurityToken.)
	ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.)

The claims for Saml2SecurityToken security tokens are expressed as part of a Saml2Assertion. A Saml2Assertion has an extensible set of claims known as SAML statements that are represented by the Statements property. The SAML authority that issued the SAML assertion is specified in the Issuer property.
