How to share a Principal within a ThreadPool ?Hi,
when I set a Principal in the current thread, using : Thread.CurentPrincipal = the Principal object is not set in the other threads of the application threadpool. Is there a special way to do that ? Oriane Hello Oriane,

So if I set the principal in a thread (say the presentation one), and then use declarative authorization with the PrincipalPermissionAttribute in another thread, it won't work... Hello Oriane,
set Context.User to the specific IPrincipal (e.g. in AuthenticateRequest) - there is a "semi documented" event firing after AuthenticateRequest called "DefaultAuthentication" which copies Context.User to Thread.CurrentPrincipal. After that your PrincipalPermissions should work. --------------------------------------- Dominick Baier - DevelopMentor http://www.leastprivilege.com Show quoteHide quote > "Dominick Baier [DevelopMentor]" > <dbaier@pleasepleasenospamdevelop.com> wrote in message > news:304286632501419246158320@news.microsoft.com... > >> Hello Oriane, >> >> why would you like to do this?? >> > Good question !

Contexct.User sets principal for all threads. You can also use AppDomain.SetThreadPrincipal But this method could be used only once.

That's not true. Context.User is for the current thread only. And you have to do that for every request, e.g. in Application_AuthenticateRequest. This is the recommended way of doing it. --------------------------------------- Dominick Baier - DevelopMentor http://www.leastprivilege.com Show quoteHide quote >> Hi, >> when I set a Principal in the current thread, using : >> Thread.CurentPrincipal = >> the Principal object is not set in the other threads of the >> application >> threadpool. >> Is there a special way to do that ? >> Oriane > If You write an ASP.NET application use Context.User instead of > Thread.CurrentPrincipal. > Contexct.User sets principal for all threads. > You can also use AppDomain.SetThreadPrincipal > But this method could be used only once.
