AsymmetricSecurityBindingElement::MessageProtectionOrder Property

.NET Framework (current version)

Other Versions

Gets or sets the order of message encryption and signing for this binding.

Namespace: System.ServiceModel.Channels
Assembly: System.ServiceModel (in System.ServiceModel.dll)

Syntax

C++

public:
property MessageProtectionOrder MessageProtectionOrder {
	MessageProtectionOrder get();
	void set(MessageProtectionOrder value);
}

Property Value

Type: System.ServiceModel.Security::MessageProtectionOrder

One of the MessageProtectionOrder values that specify how the message is protected. The default is SignBeforeEncrypt.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	The value is not a valid member of the enumeration.

Remarks

Note
If there is nothing in the message that is encrypted, the signature element is not encrypted even when the MessageProtectionOrder property is set to SignBeforeEncryptAndEncryptSignature. This behavior occurs even with system-provided bindings. However the WSDL generated by WCF still contains the <sp:EncryptSignature> assertion.

For a listing of the members and their descriptions, see MessageProtectionOrder.
