System.Web.Security Namespace

.NET Framework version 2.0

Provides data for the Creating event of an AnonymousIdentificationModule. This class cannot be inherited.

The AnonymousIdentificationEventArgs class is used to supply event values to the Creating event and to enable you to specify a custom Windows identity for the current request. You can access the Creating event of the AnonymousIdentificationModule class by specifying a subroutine named AnonymousIdentification_Creating in the Global.asax file for your ASP.NET application.

The AnonymousIdentificationModule constructs a AnonymousIdentificationEventArgs object using the current HttpContext and passes it to the AnonymousIdentification_Creating event.

You can use the AnonymousId property of the AnonymousIdentificationEventArgs object supplied to the AnonymousIdentification_Creating event to set the anonymous identifier to a custom value. If you do not specify a value for the AnonymousId property during the AnonymousIdentification_Creating event, a Guid is used.

The AnonymousIdentification_Creating event is only raised when the anonymous identification is Enabled.

The following code example uses the AnonymousIdentification_Creating event to set the anonymous identifier to a custom value.

public void AnonymousIdentification_Creating ( object src, AnonymousIdentificationEventArgs args ) {
   args.AnonymousID = Samples.AspNet.Security.MyIdClass.GetAnonymousId ( );
   Samples.AspNet.Security.MyIdClass.LogAnonymousId ( args.AnonymousID );
}

Public Sub AnonymousIdentification_Creating ( src As Object, args As AnonymousIdentificationEventArgs )
   args.AnonymousID = Samples.AspNet.Security.MyIdClass.GetAnonymousId ( )
   Samples.AspNet.Security.MyIdClass.LogAnonymousId ( args.AnonymousId )
End Sub
