SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute Constructor

Creates a new instance of the SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute class and specifies whether to allow anonymous access to the associated profile property.

Namespace:  System.Web.Profile
Assembly:  System.Web (in System.Web.dll)

public:
SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute(
	bool allow
)

Parameters

allow
Type: System::Boolean

true if anonymous users can access the associated profile property; otherwise false.

The SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute class is used to identify whether a property of a custom profile implementation can be accessed if the user is an anonymous user. For information about enabling anonymous identification, see the anonymousIdentification configuration element.

If no SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute is specified for a profile property, anonymous access to the profile property is not allowed.

A custom profile implementation is a class that inherits from the ProfileBase abstract class and defines properties for the user profile that are not specified in the profile configuration element.

The following example defines a class that inherits from the ProfileBase class to create a custom profile. The type of the custom profile is specified in the inherits attribute of the profile configuration element in the Web.config file for an application. For an example of a configuration file that specifies a custom profile implementation, see the SettingsAllowAnonymousAttribute class overview.
