During the validation phase of workflow compilation, a workflow source document is rejected if it or the companion rules file directly references any .NET Framework types not present on a list of authorized types. The list of authorized types is an XML document where each entry indicates an Assembly, a Namespace, a TypeName, and an Authorized {true|false} indicator. This class corresponds to an entry on the list. Also note that wildcard character designations are allowed, to include or exclude complete namespaces. For example, using Type=”System.*” includes all types in System, including types contained in child namespaces.
The use of a list of authorized types is controlled by the WorkflowCompiler option '/checktypes'
