WindowsAuthentication.GetCallerSessionID Method

WindowsAuthenticationGetCallerSessionID Method

Content Studio 5.7 SDK

Content Studio Web Content Management System

[This is preliminary documentation and is subject to change.]

Returns the caller's session id, and if found, updates the session expires value.

Namespace: ContentStudio.Security
Assembly: CSServer5 (in CSServer5.dll) Version: 5.7.5016.0 (5.7.5016.0)

Syntax

protected override int GetCallerSessionID(
	ConnectionId connectionId,
	SecurityIdentifier sid
)

Protected Overrides Function GetCallerSessionID ( 
	connectionId As ConnectionId,
	sid As SecurityIdentifier
) As Integer

Parameters

connectionId: Type: ContentStudioConnectionId
A value that identifies the Web site
sid: Type: System.Security.PrincipalSecurityIdentifier
A SecurityIdentifier representing the user to get the session for.

Return Value

Type: Int32
The session identifier of the user's session if the session exists, zero otherwise.

Remarks

Inheriting classes call this method after that the caller has been identified to test if a user's session already is valid. This will radically improve performance. If the session is valid a value greater that 999 will be returned. This identifier should be returned to the caller. If the session is invalid the session must be opened. If the account is an anonymous user account the CS_ANONYMOUS_SESSION_IDENTIFIER session will be returned.
