Syntax
public class VirtualRoleRepository<T> : IDisposable where T : VirtualRoleProviderBase
Type Parameters
Name Description
T
Remarks

The purpose of this class is to act as a baseclass for implementations. Dependencies should not be taken to this class but instead to abstractions exposed by implementations, such as IVirtualRoleRepository or IVisitorGroupRoleRepository.

All operations on this class is thread-safe.

Constructors

VirtualRoleRepository(IVirtualRoleReplication)

Initializes a new instance of the VirtualRoleRepository<T> class.

Declaration
public VirtualRoleRepository(IVirtualRoleReplication replication)
Parameters
Type Name Description
IVirtualRoleReplication replication

Class that will handle replication of changes

Methods

AfterUnregister(T)

Called after an instance has been unregistered.

Declaration
protected virtual void AfterUnregister(T virtualRoleProvider)
Parameters
Type Name Description
T virtualRoleProvider

The virtual role provider.
Remarks

The base implementation does nothing, subclasses can override this method if any processing is needed after unregistration.

BeforeRegister(T)

Called before an instance is registered.

Declaration
protected virtual void BeforeRegister(T virtualRoleProvider)
Parameters
Type Name Description
T virtualRoleProvider

The virtual role provider.
Remarks

The base implementation does nothing, subclasses can override this method if any processing is needed before registration.

ClearCache(Boolean)

Clears the internal repository cache.

Declaration
public virtual void ClearCache(bool broadcast)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Boolean broadcast

if set to true the clear request is broadcasted.

Dispose()

Implements IDisposable

Declaration
public void Dispose()

Dispose(Boolean)

Implements IDisposable

Declaration
protected virtual void Dispose(bool disposing)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Boolean disposing

GetAllRoles()

Get a list of all registered virtual roles in this repository.

Declaration
public virtual IEnumerable<string> GetAllRoles()
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<System.String>

A list of virtual role names.

GetRoleNamesByType(Type)

Gets the virtual role names for a specified type.

Declaration
public virtual IEnumerable<string> GetRoleNamesByType(Type type)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Type type

Type of the class.
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<System.String>

The role names.

Register(String, T)

Register a new virtual role

Declaration
public virtual void Register(string name, T virtualRoleProvider)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String name

Name of the role
T virtualRoleProvider

The implementation
Remarks

This method will overwrite any existing registered virtual roles with the same name. No events will be raised with this overload.

Register(String, Type, Boolean)

Register a new virtual role and return the instance T.

Declaration
public virtual void Register(string name, Type virtualRoleProviderType, bool replicateChanges)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String name

Name of the role
System.Type virtualRoleProviderType

The type of the implementation
System.Boolean replicateChanges

True if changes should be replicated to other instances or machines
Remarks

This method will overwrite any existing registered virtual roles with the same name

RegisterInstance(String, T, Boolean)

Registers an instance of VirtualRoleProviderBase.

Declaration
protected virtual void RegisterInstance(string name, T instance, bool replicateChanges)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String name

The name.
T instance

The instance.
System.Boolean replicateChanges

if set to true cahgnes are replicated.

SearchRoles(String)

Find virtual roles registered in this repository

Declaration
public virtual IEnumerable<string> SearchRoles(string query)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String query

Query to find roles from.
Returns
Type Description
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<System.String>

A list of roles that match the roleName
Remarks

Matching of role names is simply a substring check - if the role contains the string passed in roleName anywhere in the string, it is considered a match.

TryGetRole(String, out T)

Declaration
public virtual bool TryGetRole(string name, out T virtualRoleProvider)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String name

Name of the role
T virtualRoleProvider

The virtual role provider registered for this name
Returns
Type Description
System.Boolean

True if the role was found

Unregister(String, Boolean)

Unregister a virtual role

Declaration
public virtual void Unregister(string name, bool replicateChanges)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String name

The name of the role
System.Boolean replicateChanges

Replicate changes to all instences of this class

Events

ClearedCache
