Overridable method to allow implementation of custom authentication arrangements

Syntax

Sub ModifyCredentials( _
   ByVal args As ModifyCredentialArgs _
)

Dim instance As ITlsClientSecurity
Dim args As ModifyCredentialArgs
 
instance.ModifyCredentials(args)

void ModifyCredentials( 
   ModifyCredentialArgs args
)

void ModifyCredentials( 
   ModifyCredentialArgs^ args
)

Parameters

args: Details of the connection being made

Remarks

This provides an extensible and flexible method to allow the bindings to be modified - e.g. (in conjunction with ModifyBindings) the code in the example could be used to use Basic Authentication.

All the implementations of this method in the intrinsic MedicalConnections.Security classes do nothing.

Example

class MySecurity 
{ 
    class MySecurity : TlsClientWindows 
    { 
        public override void ModifyBindings(ModifyBindingsArgs args) 
        { 
            foreach (BindingElement b in args.Bindings) 
            { 
                if (b is HttpsTransportBindingElement) 
                    (b as HttpsTransportBindingElement).AuthenticationScheme = System.Net.AuthenticationSchemes.Basic; 
            }
        } 
 
        public override void ModifyCredentials(ModifyCredentialArgs args) 
        { 
            args.Credentials.UserName.UserName = "MyUserName"; 
            args.Credentials.UserName.Password = "MyPassword"; 
        } 
    } 
}

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
