IsolatedStorageFilePermissionAttribute Class

Allows security actions for IsolatedStorageFilePermission to be applied to code using declarative security. This class cannot be inherited.

Namespace: System.Security.Permissions
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

[SerializableAttribute] 
[ComVisibleAttribute(true)] 
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets::Assembly|AttributeTargets::Class|AttributeTargets::Struct|AttributeTargets::Constructor|AttributeTargets::Method, AllowMultiple=true, Inherited=false)] 
public ref class IsolatedStorageFilePermissionAttribute sealed : public IsolatedStoragePermissionAttribute
/** @attribute SerializableAttribute() */ 
/** @attribute ComVisibleAttribute(true) */ 
/** @attribute AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Assembly|AttributeTargets.Class|AttributeTargets.Struct|AttributeTargets.Constructor|AttributeTargets.Method, AllowMultiple=true, Inherited=false) */

Not applicable.

The scope of the declaration that is allowed depends on the SecurityAction that is used.

The security information declared by a security attribute is stored in the metadata of the attribute target and is accessed by the system at run time. Security attributes are used only for declarative security. For imperative security, use the corresponding permission class.

The following example of a declarative attribute shows the correct way to request IsolatedStorageFilePermission, states that you must have at least this permission to run your code, and requests a maximum user quota of 5 MB.

[assembly:IsolatedStorageFilePermissionAttribute(
SecurityAction::RequestMinimum,UserQuota=5242880)];
//In C++, you must specify that you are using the assembly scope when making a request.

/** @assembly IsolatedStorageFilePermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.
    RequestMinimum, UserQuota = 5242880)
 */
// In VJ#, you must specify that you are using the assembly scope when making
// a request.

The following example shows how to demand that the calling code has unrestricted IsolatedStorageFilePermission at link time. Demands are typically made in managed libraries (DLLs) to help protect methods or classes from potentially harmful code.

[IsolatedStorageFilePermissionAttribute(SecurityAction::Demand,
Unrestricted=true)]

/** @attribute IsolatedStorageFilePermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.Demand, 
    Unrestricted = true)
 */

This example shows how to tell the CLR that code in this assembly requires the IsolatedStoragePermission and also demonstrates how to write and read from isolated storage.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Security;
using namespace System::Security::Permissions;
using namespace System::IO::IsolatedStorage;
using namespace System::IO;

// Notify the CLR to grant this assembly the IsolatedStorage-
// FilePermission. This allows the assembly to work with storage
// files that are isolated by user and assembly.
[assembly: IsolatedStorageFilePermission(
    SecurityAction::RequestMinimum, UsageAllowed =
    IsolatedStorageContainment::AssemblyIsolationByUser)];
int main()
{
    try
    {
        // Attempt to create a storage file that is isolated by
        // user and assembly. IsolatedStorageFilePermission
        // granted to the attribute at the top of this file
        // allows CLR to load this assembly and execution of this
        // statement.
        Stream^ fileCreateStream = gcnew
            IsolatedStorageFileStream(
            "AssemblyData",
            FileMode::Create,
            IsolatedStorageFile::GetUserStoreForAssembly());

        StreamWriter^ streamWriter = gcnew StreamWriter(
            fileCreateStream);
        try
        {
            // Write some data out to the isolated file.

            streamWriter->Write("This is some test data.");
            streamWriter->Close();	
        }
        finally
        {
            delete fileCreateStream;
            delete streamWriter;
        } 
    }
    catch (IOException^ ex)
    {
        Console::WriteLine(ex->Message);
    }

    try
    {
        Stream^ fileOpenStream =
            gcnew IsolatedStorageFileStream(
            "AssemblyData",
            FileMode::Open,
            IsolatedStorageFile::GetUserStoreForAssembly());
        // Attempt to open the file that was previously created.

        StreamReader^ streamReader = gcnew StreamReader(
            fileOpenStream);
        try
        { 
            // Read the data from the file and display it.

            Console::WriteLine(streamReader->ReadLine());
            streamReader->Close();
        }
        finally
        {
            delete fileOpenStream;
            delete streamReader;
        }
    }
    catch (FileNotFoundException^ ex)
    {
        Console::WriteLine(ex->Message);
    }
    catch (IOException^ ex)
    {
        Console::WriteLine(ex->Message);
    }
}

// This code produces the following output.
//
//  This is some test data.
