RE: coding Access Rules

Hi Gary,

From your description, you're building a custom web management application
which can help user configure the membership user & role info of the
application. Currently, you're wondering how to add the "access
rule"(authorization) management into the system, correct?

As for the "access rules", it is actually persisted as <authorization>
setting in application's web.config file, so if you want to provide service
to programmatically manage this setting, you need to also programmatically
change the web.config file. In .net framework 2.0, you can utilize the
configuration API to do this. And the "<authorization> section is
associated with the System.Web.Configuratrion.AuthorizationSection class.

#AuthorizationSection Class
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.configuration.authorizat
ionsection.aspx

You can use code to open the configuration object of the specified path in
your application and then locate the "AuthorizationSection" and manage
rules in it.

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng
