I know it's possible to use this information in a winform, wpf or console application. But I rather to determine which user with what roles are running a sepecific method, so I could decide upon them and run different codes. In addition in a desktop app. how a user can login? Is there any special winform or wpf login control?
View 1 RepliesI don't like asp.net profile provider store all profile info in one or two row in the database, but I want to use membership/profile API for authentication purpose.Customize membership/role/profile provider requires big big upfront efforts, which may cause more mess later.So how do people deal with that normally?

View 1 RepliesI am creating a interface for User Role Management based on built in membership provider.I want to display all the roles as check boxes for a selected user. I am able to display all the roles in the database, but not able to load the specific user roles. For example, I am able to publish role 1 role 2 role3 role 4 as check boxes. But if the user is already flagged as role 1 and role 3, I am not able to show that data (role1 and 3 should be checked when form loads, but right now, they are not checked)...How do I get the roles as checked boxes display on a page.I am using a repeater control to display roles as check boxes on the page..
<asp:Repeater ID="UsersRoleList" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox runat="server" ID="RoleCheckBox" AutoPostBack="true" Text='<%# Container.DataItem %>'

i want to use session to store some information for a form(ascx and ascx.cs file) im using asp.net, c#, and visual studio 2005 , i included "using System.Web.SessionState;" but session is not a key word in visual studio intellisense. and also, i researched a little and found that many people are using "using System.Web.SessionState.HttpSessionState;" and the HttpSessionState is not in the intellisense as well. so which other classes or libraries should i using in order to use session?
View 3 RepliesI assume that any Role information is being stored in the FormsAuthenticationTicket in the UserData (delimited by some character).Second, I assume that any information in the Profile is not stored in memory / session anywhere, but when you do call the profile.VARIABLE, you are in fact doing a call to the DB (although it's simplified by the fact that it knows who you are when calling etc).Assuming the above is correct, I'm trying to complete a custom membership provider. As part of this each user will have a single role. So using a full blown role provider seems to be overkill. I assume that I can write the single role into the UserData in the FormsAuthenticationTicket myself?I would like to also store a number of other small bits of information in the ticket (such as a GroupId, VendorId which are seperate from the user / role). If I wanted to do this, and the role is held in the userdata, how would I identify what is a role and what is someother persistant data I need on the application?I could use Session items for these, but this might cause issues with the web-farm, plus the amount of data is very small (3 or 4, int32 values and maybe one string).Finally, items such as Address, PostCode, Contact Phone number all seem sensible items to place in the profile ( I'm using the table provider). Is the advantage here purely the ease of access? This isn't commonly used data, so if there is a round trip to the db thats not an issue really in this instance
View 4 RepliesI have this Control directive in a usercontrol (i've changed the namespace and class name):
<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" Inherits="Namespace.Path.To.ClassName" %>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="txtComment" TextMode="MultiLine" ValidationGroup="comment" />
ClassName is a class that lives in a class library and this is the class:
namespace Namespace.Path.To
{
public class ClassName : System.Web.UI.UserControl
{
protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox txtComment;
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
HttpContext.Current.Response.Write(txtComment == null);
HttpContext.Current.Response.End();
}
Can anyone tell me how to show alert message inside the .cs file of class library project in c#? I am calling a method of cs file in classlibrary project. Whenever the control comes to the alert message statement inside the method, alert message should be shown on the web page(aspx) and the next statement to the alert message statement should not be executed.
View 3 RepliesI might be asking a dumb question, but I have a client for whom I need to build many websites (10+) (asp.net 3.5) which will all the pages on each site will have the same codebehind, but the sites will launching in different regions and whilst following the same template, will have different content.I have built and launched site 1, and sites 2, 3 & 4 is nearly live, but it occurs to me that as all the sites are basically the same, the code is going to get more complicated to update as it will be duplicated, so if I need to do a bug fix on one site, I'll need to do the fix on all websites (and this is going to get complicated.)
I was wondering if it possible to somehow create a class library of all the current aspx.cs files, reference this dll in each website and then inherit these classes into the .aspx.cs files. So default.aspx in each site would still have a CodeFile of "Default.aspx.cs", but Default.aspx.cs would inherit the corresponing class from the dll:
using WebPagesClass;
public partial class _Default : WebPagesClass._Default
{ }
The reason for doing it like this is that if I need to change any code on a specific website (for minor changes in languages for instance), I can override the page functions and change the parts required. For all other pages which have not cha, I can just copy from a single website.Is this vaguely possible? If not anyone one got any killer suggestions of how to manage so many websites from a single codebase?
I'm trying to use both the default Membership and Profile Providers and can not for the life of me get both to work at the same time. I'm using MS Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and when I create a new Project I get access to the Membership but not the Profile. When I create a new Website I get just the opposite i.e. access to Profile and not Membership. What do I need to do to get access to both?
View 2 RepliesI am building my first asp.net app from scratch. I have two different membership providers. One is a basic sql provider while the other is active directory. The user "role" is determined by how the user logs in. I want to use the Role Manager functionality of asp.net but I don't want to build the whole role provider part when I really don't have "roles" in my application, I have two membership types.
Is there a way to set the role of the user through the membership provider at login or in some way mark a logged in user as having been authenticated by sql or AD?
This is my first asp.net app, am I even thinking about this the right way?
I have a web application which uses membership and profiles. I successfully used the WebProfileBuilder extension, so my profile class is correctly generated, and is working nicely. However, after a new request of my client, I need now to move that profile management part into another assembly (so I'd be able to get profile information in a windows service running on the same machine).
What I made is created the new assembly, moved my generated profile file, and tried to use it from the other assembly, but without any success. I always get a SettingsPropertyNotFoundException. My thought is that the profile system doesn't know where to find its connection information, so I tried to add the connectionstring and provider in the app.config of this assembly, but this doesn't seem to work.
I'm currently developing a web site that will make heavy use of asp.net membership. (Using Umbraco, but that just uses the regular asp.net membership provider).I want to store some extended information about a user and I'm considering if I should store the information in the profile or in a custom table. Is there any pros / cons to any specific method? Some properties like payment details are more natural to place in the profile, on the other hand, a transaction log seems less natural residing in the user profile (IMHO). Any thoughts on this?

I want to send out an email to all users where their birthday is today. i am using the built-in asp.net (3.5) membership. All users have a profile (stored in aspnet_Profile) which contains a date/time property called 'birthday'. I need to get a list of users email addresses from the 'aspnet_Membership' table where a users birthday is today, along with the users 'firstname' which is string property in the aspnet_Profile table. i would like a list returned preferrably using C# LINQ. i am not sure how to access the birthday property in the profile table, based on the way it is stored in the db table i.e name/value columns

View 1 RepliesI am working in a Silverlight 4 + RIA Services application. On the server side I am using Entity Framework and SQL Server. The user authentication is performed in the application using the default ASP.NET Membership Provider.
I am also using some profile properties to store some user preferences. Unfortunately I came across a situation where I have to change one of this properties in all users.
Altought I am using EF to manage data persistence, the ASP Membership provider tables are not in my entities diagram, since everything I must do regarding membership is performed using the objects available on the provider.
So I was thinking to use this objects to change the user prefrences, but my question is about what happens if something fails? Is there any transaction object I could use on the Membership objects to perform an atomic operation?
I know EF supports transactions, but in this case I would have to add the asp.net membership tables to my diagram.. only for that operation.
I would like to collect all the emails from all users in a certain role. How would I do this ?

View 11 RepliesI am currently working in an ASP.Net application where i need to implement ASP.Net Membership and Roles. I have used Login controls in my pages. Also I am using a menu in the master page, which is getting data bindings from database. For data bindings I am using XMLDatasource and a transform file (.xslt file). I need to bind the data to the Menu based on the user roles.
My issue is that the generated Menu is not behaving consistently. Sometimes it will show the correct menu for a particular role and some times it will show previously loaded data.Providing my code here:
masterpage.master.cs
private void LoadMenuItems() {
System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal User;
User = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User;[code]....

We are trying to implement Custom Role membership provider for our web app. For authorization we want to check for one more field like Facilityid for the logged on user along with role he has. eg. my User1 having Role1 with Facility1 can access some option and same user role for Facility2 have different option. So is there a way we can extend the existing role/profile provider to authorize user with this additional field along with role assigned.
