Aspnet

The document discusses dynamic web pages using ASP.NET. It begins by explaining how ASP.NET is an improvement over classic ASP with features like object-oriented programming, rich GUI controls, and separation of logic from layout. It then covers creating static and dynamic web pages in ASP.NET using code-behind pages and server controls. Events and controls are also summarized, showing how ASP.NET pages function as objects that can handle events from server controls.

Dynamic Web Pages with ASP.

NET

ASP.NET
Successor of Active Server Pages (ASP), but with a completely different architecture:
object-oriented event-based allows rapid application development (RAD) rich library of GUI elements (web controls) users can define their own GUI elements separation of layout (HTML) and logic (C#) efficient (compiled server scripts) automatic state management authorisation / authentication ...

HTML Forms (With CGI Scripts)

CGI script myprog

- reads total and amount - sends back a new HTML text in which total and amount have new values

Problems
- CGI programming is tedious - restricted to HTML elements - must manage the state of text fields manually when the page is sent back

General Notation for Web Controls

<asp:ClassName PropertyName="value" ... Runat="server" />

Example
<asp:Label ID="total" Text="Hello" ForeColor="Red" Runat="server" /> public class Label: WebControl { public virtual string ID { get {...} set {...} } public virtual string Text { get {...} set {...} } public virtual Color ForeColor { get {...} set {...} } ... } All web control classes are in the namespace System.Web.UI

Alternative Notation
<asp:Label ID="total" ForeColor="Red" Runat="server" > Hello </asp:Label>

Advantages of Web Forms

The page is an object

one can access all its properties and methods: page.IsPostBack, page.User, page.FindControl(), ...

All GUI elements are objects

one can access all their properties and methods: amount.Text, amount.Font, amount.Width, ...

One can implement custom GUI elements

Web pages can access the whole .NET library

databases, XML, RMI, ...

The state of all GUI elements is retained

amount.Text does not need to be set before the page is sent back

Events Causing Round Trip

Round trip events (cause an immediate round trip)
Click <asp:Button Text="click me" Runat="server" OnClick="DoClick" />

Delayed events (are handled at the next round trip)

TextChanged SelectedIndexChanged <asp:TextBox Runat="server" OnTextChanged="DoTextChanged" />

<asp:ListBox Rows="3" Runat="server" OnSelectedIndexChanged="DoSIChanged" />

AutoPostBack (causes a delayed event to lead to an immediate round trip)

TextChanged

<asp:TextBox Runat="server" AutoPostBack="true" OnTextChanged="DoTextChanged" />

Properties name of the control nested controls enclosing control page to which the control belongs should the control be visible? state of this control (see later) should the state be persistent? Methods does the control have nested controls? searches for a nested control with the name id loads data from a data source loads the state from the request stream saves the state to the response stream renders the control to HTML Events after the control was created after the state was loaded from the request after DataBind was called before the control is rendered to HTML before the control is released

ViewState
public void ButtonClick (object Button, EventArgs e) { int clicks = ViewState["nClicks"] == null ? 0 : (int) ViewState["nClicks"]; ViewState["nClicks"] = ++clicks; }

programmers can store arbitrary data in ViewState ViewState is stored in a hidden field of the HTML page this here is the ViewState of Page (ViewState of Button is protected)

Class WebControl
public class WebControl: Control { public virtual Unit Width { get; set; } public virtual Unit Height { get; set; } public virtual FontInfo Font { get; set; } public virtual Color ForeColor { get; set; } public virtual Color BackColor { get; set; } public virtual Unit BorderWidth { get; set; } public virtual Color BorderColor { get; set; } public virtual BorderStyle BorderStyle { get; set; } public virtual bool Enabled { get; set; } public virtual short TabIndex { get; set; } public virtual string ToolTip { get; set; } ... }

Units of Measurement
public struct Unit { public Unit (double value, UnitType type); public double Value { get; } public UnitType Type { get; } ... } public enum UnitType {Cm, Em, Ex, Inch, Mm, Percentage, Pica, Pixel, Point }

setting properties in a web page: default: Pixel

<asp:TextBox ID="tb" Width="100" ... /> <asp:TextBox ID="tb" Width="10cm" ... /> <asp:TextBox ForeColor="Red" ... />

Colors

namespace: System.Drawing

public struct Color { public static Color Blue { get; } public static Color Red { get; } public static Color Yellow { get; } ... public static Color FromArgb (int R, int B, int G); }

setting properties in the script code:

tb.Width = 100; // default: Pixel tb.Width = new Unit(10, UnitType.Cm); tb.ForeColor = Color.Red;

WebControl (Fonts)
Fonts
public sealed class FontInfo { public string Name { get; set; } public FontUnit Size { get; set; } public bool Bold { get; set; } public bool Italic { get; set; } public bool Underline { get; set; } ... } public struct FontUnit { public FontUnit (Unit size); public FontUnit (FontSize size); public Unit Unit { get; } public FontSize Type { get; } ... } public enum FontSize { AsUnit, XSmall, Small, Medium, Large, XLarge, ... }

setting the font in a web page:

<asp:Button ID="b1" Font-Name="Arial" Font-Size="Large" Font-Bold="true" .../> <asp:Button ID="b2" Font-Name="Times" Font-Size="12px" Font-Italic="true" ... />

setting the font in the script code:

b1.Font.Name = "Arial"; b1.Font.Size = new FontUnit(FontSize.Large); b1.Font.Bold = true; b2.Font.Name = "Times"; b2.Font.Size = new FontUnit(12); b2.Font.Italic = true;

WebControl (Other Properties)

BorderStyle
public enum BorderStyle { NotSet, None, Dotted, Dashed, Solid, Double, Groove, Ridge, Inset, OutSet }

Enabled
<asp:Button Enabled="false" ... />

displays the control, but deactivates it

TabIndex
<asp:TextBox TabIndex="3" ... /> <asp:TextBox TabIndex="2" ... /> <asp:TextBox TabIndex="1" ... />

TAB

sequence in which the controls are visited when the TAB key is pressed

Class Button
public class Button: WebControl { //--- properties public string Text { get; set; } public string CommandName { get; set; } public string CommandArgument { get; set; } public bool CausesValidation { get; set; } //--- events public event EventHandler Click; public event CommandEventHandler Command; }

caption of the button for handling Command events. should the validators run when the page is sent to the server? default = true

<asp:Button Text="click me" OnClick="DoClick" Runat="server" />

public void DoClick (object sender, EventArgs e) { ... }

delegate EventHandler either in the code behind or in <script> tags of the page

Button (Command Event)

Command Event
useful is multiple buttons on a page should be handled by the same event handler
<form Runat="server"> <asp:Label ID="label" Text="100.00" Runat="server" /> <br><br> <asp:Button Text="+ 10%" CommandName="add" CommandArgument="0.1" OnCommand="DoCommand" Runat="server" /> <asp:Button Text="- 5%" CommandName="sub" CommandArgument="0.05" OnCommand="DoCommand" Runat="server" /> </form> public void DoCommand (object sender, CommandEventArgs e) { double total = Convert.ToDouble(label.Text); if (e.CommandName == "add") total += total * Convert.ToDouble(e.CommandArgument); else if (e.CommandName == "sub") total -= total * Convert.ToDouble(e.CommandArgument); label.Text = total.ToString("f2"); }

true: TextChanged causes an immediate round trip raised when the RETURN key is pressed or when the cursor leaves the TextBox

<asp:TextBox TextMode="MultiLine" Rows="2" Columns="15" Wrap="true" Runat="server" /> line 1 line 2 line 3 </asp:TextBox>

Class CheckBox
public class CheckBox: WebControl { //--- properties public virtual bool Checked { get; set; } public virtual string Text { get; set; } public virtual TextAlign TextAlign { get; set; } public virtual bool AutoPostBack { get; set; } //--- events public event EventHandler CheckedChanged; } public enum TextAlign { Left, Right }

raised when Checked changes

<form Runat="server"> <asp:CheckBox ID="apples" Text="Apples" Runat="server" /><br> <asp:CheckBox ID="pears" Text="Pears" Runat="server" /><br> <asp:CheckBox ID="bananas" Text="Bananas" Runat="server" /><br> <asp:Button Text="Buy" OnClick="DoClick" Runat="server" /> <br><br> <asp:Label ID="label" Runat="server" /> </form> void DoClick (object sender, EventArgs e) { label.Text = "You bought: "; if (apples.Checked) label.Text += "Apples "; if (pears.Checked) label.Text += "Pears "; if (bananas.Checked) label.Text += "Bananas "; }

Class RadioButton
public class RadioButton: CheckBox { public virtual string GroupName { get; set; } }

all radio buttons of the same group must have the same group name

for DataView: name of the column that contains the text to be displayed

DataValueField for DataView: name of the column that contains the value which corrsponds to the displayed text
45

Class ListBox
public class ListBox: ListControl { public virtual int Rows { get; set; } public virtual ListSelectionMode SelectionMode { get; set; } } public enum ListSelectionMode { Single, Multiple }

statically specified list

void ButtonClick (object sender, EventArgs e) { lab.Text = "The selected country has the international car code "; if (list.SelectedItem != null) lab.Text += list.SelectedItem.Value; }

ListBox (Even Simpler)

If Text and Value are equal, one can use the followin simple solution
<form Runat="server"> <asp:ListBox ID="list" Rows="3" AutoPostBack="true" OnSelectedIndexChanged="Show" Runat="server" /> <br><br> <asp:Button Text="Fill" OnClick="Fill" Runat="server" /> <br><br> <asp:Label ID="lab" Runat="server" /> </form> void Fill (object sender, EventArgs e) { list.DataSource = new string[] {"D", "F", "GB", "I", "USA"}; list.DataBind(); } void Show (object sender, EventArgs e) { lab.Text = "The selected country has the international car code "; if (list.SelectedItem != null) lab.Text += list.SelectedItem.Value; }

DataGrid (Methods and Events)

public class DataGrid: BaseDataList { ... //--- methods public override void DataBind(); ... //--- events public event DataGridCommandEventHandler ItemCommand; public event DataGridCommandEventHandler EditCommand; public event DataGridCommandEventHandler CancelCommand; public event DataGridCommandEventHandler UpdateCommand; public event DataGridCommandEventHandler DeleteCommand; public event EventHandler SelectedIndexChanged; }

Events are raised depending on the column kind BoundColumn ButtonColumn EditCommandColumn

DataGrid (Column Kind)

BoundColumn
Is automatically bound to a columns of the data source
DataTextField = "dbColumnName"

ButtonColumn

Every line contains a button which raises an ItemCommand

ButtonType = "LinkButton" | "PushButton" Text = "buttonLabel" CommandName = "Select" | "Delete" | "anyText"

CommandName is passed to the ItemCommand

EditCommandColumn Every line contains an edit button. If it is clicked it is replaced

with an update and a cancel button.
ButtonType = "LinkButton" | "PushButton" EditText = "editButtonLabel" UpdateText = "updateButtonLabel" CancelText = "cancelButtonLabel"

DataGrid (Event Handling)

3 Kinds of States
Page state
e.g. contents of TextBoxes, state of CheckBoxes, ...

Session state

(session = all requests from the same client within a certain time) e.g. shopping cart, email address of a client, ...
(Application = all aspx files in the same application
/Samples x.aspx session state session S e r v e r y.aspx z.aspx application state

Application state
i e n t response + page state

virtual directory) session request + page state C e.g. configuration data, number of sessions, ... l

C l i e n t

session state
71

How to Access State Information

Page state
writing: reading: ViewState["counter"] = counterVal; int counterVal = (int) ViewState["counter"];

Session state
writing: reading: Session["cart"] = shoppingCart; DataTable shoppingCart = (DataTable) Session["cart"];

Application state
writing: reading: Application["database"] = databaseName; string databaseName = (string) Application["databaseName"];

ViewState, Session and Application are properties of the Page class

Class Page
public class Page: TemplateControl { //--- properties public ValidatorCollection Validators { get; } public bool IsValid { get; } public bool IsPostBack { get; } public virtual string TemplateSourceDirectory { get; } public HttpApplicationState Application { get; } public virtual HttpSessionState Session { get; } public HttpRequest Request { get; } public HttpResponse Response { get; } ... //--- methods public string MapPath(string virtualPath); public virtual void Validate(); ... }

IsValid true, if none of the validators on the page reported an error IsPostBack true, if the page was sent to the server in a round trip. If the page was requested for the first time
IsPostBack == false

TemplateSourceDirectory current virtual directory, z.B. "/Samples" Application and Session application state and session state Request und Response HTTP request and HTTP response

MapPath(virtPath) maps the virtual directory to the physical one Validate() starts all validators on the page

Class HttpRequest
public class HttpRequest { public string UserHostName { get; } public string UserHostAddress { get; } public string HttpMethod { get; } public HttpBrowserCapabilities Browser { get; } public NameValueCollection Form { get; } public NameValueCollection QueryString { get; } public NameValueCollection Cookies { get; } public NameValueCollection ServerVariables { get; } ... }

UserHostName domain name of the client UserHostAddress IP number of the client

address = 127.0.0.1 method = GET browser = IE version = 6.0 supports JS = True server = Microsoft-IIS/5.0

HttpRequest (Request and Form

<form Runat="server"> <asp:TextBox ID="text1" Runat="server" /><br> <asp:TextBox ID="text2" Runat="server" /><br> <asp:CheckBox ID="checkbox" Text="box" Runat="server" /><br> <asp:Button ID="button" Text="Send" OnClick="DoClick" Runat="server" /> <asp:Label ID="lab" Runat="server" /> </form> void DoClick (object sender, EventArgs e) { lab.Text = "Query string<br>"; foreach (string par in Request.QueryString.Keys) lab.Text += par + " = " + Request.QueryString[par] + "<br>"; lab.Text += "<br>Form parameters<br>"; foreach (string par in Request.Form.Keys) lab.Text += par + " = " + Request.Form[par] + "<br>"; }

Parameters)

Query string par1 = 123 par2 = Hello Form parameters __VIEWSTATE = dDwxMTYxMTk1 ... text1 = John text2 = Miller checkbox = on button = Send

Class HttpResponse
public class HttpResponse { //--- properties public string ContentType { get; set; } public TextWriter Output { get; } public int StatusCode { get; set; } public HttpCookieCollection Cookies { get; set; } ... //--- methods public void Write(string s); // various overloaded versions public void Redirect(string newURL); ... }

ContentType MIME type (e.g. text/html) Output HTML response stream; can be written to with Write StatusCode e.g. 200 for "ok" or 404 for "page not found"

Test1.aspx
<form Runat="server"> Name: <asp:TextBox ID="name" Runat="server" /> <asp:Button Text="Send" OnClick="DoClick" Runat="server" /> </form> void DoClick (object sender, EventArgs e) { Response.Redirect("Welcome.aspx?name=" + name.Text); }

virtual directories

machine.config
web.config

global configuration file stored in the .NET Framework directory

specific configuration file stored in a virtual directory or in its subdirectories overwrites configurations from machine.config or from other configuration files further up the hierarchy

Configuration files are written in XML

web.config

Example: Application Parameters

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <appSettings> <add key="author" value="hm" /> <add key="organisation" value="JKU" /> </appSettings> ... </configuration>

Can be accessed in ASP.NET pages

<%@Page Language="C#" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Configuration" %> <html> <body> <%= "author = " + ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["author"] %><br> <%= "organisation = " + ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["organisation"] %><br> </body> </html>

Example: Tracing
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.web> <trace enabled="true" pageOutput="true" /> ... </system.web> ... </configuration>

Gives detailed error diagnostics

Shows a trace if the page is correct

Authorisation
Who may visit the pages of a specific directory?
The directory must have a web.config file with the following contents
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.web> <authorization> <allow users="admin" /> <deny users="?" /> </authorization> ... </system.web> ... </configuration>

users="user1, user2, ..."

* ? name all users anonymous users users who have authenticated themselves with this name

machine.config contains
<allow users="*" />

This is default if no <allow ...> is specified

Authentication
4 kinds
None No authentication. All users are anonymous. Uses the login name and the password of the Windows login. Makes only sense for local servers. Users are redirected to the login page of the Passport server where they can authenticate themselves (with their user name and password). Users are authenticated by a custom login page.

Windows

Passport

Forms

Forms Authentication
web.config

(Configuration)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.web> <authorization> <deny users="?" /> </authorization> <authentication mode="Forms"> <forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" name="mycookie" protection="All" timeout="20"> <credentials passwordFormat="MD5"> <user name="peter" password="85C69322756E01FD4A7A22DE55E19743"/> <user name="wolfgang" password="85C69322756E01FD4A7A22DE55E19743"/> </credentials> </forms> </authentication> string encryptedPwd = ... FormsAuthentication.HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile("myPwd", "MD5"); </system.web> ... </configuration>

The users "peter" and "wolfgang" as well as their passwords are stored on the server
83

Authentication (How it Works)

1. Anonymous user tries to access A.aspx 2. Because of <deny users="?"/> and <forms loginUrl="Login.aspx"> the user is redirected to Login.aspx directory requiring authentication A.aspx B.aspx C.aspx

web.config
<deny users="?" /> .. <forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" ...>

3. User enters her name and password and is authenticated

yes
4. Authentication successful?

5. User is redirected to A.aspx and may also access all other pages of this directory now (because she is authenticated)

Login.aspx
<%@ Page Language="C#" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Security" %> <html> <head> <title>Login page</title> <script Language="C#" Runat="server"> void Authenticate (object sender, EventArgs e) { if (FormsAuthentication.Authenticate(user.Text, pwd.Text) || user.Text == "Karin") FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(user.Text, false); else msg.Text = "-- authentication failed"; } </script> </head> <body> <form Runat="server"> <asp:TextBox ID="user" Runat="server"/> Name<br> <asp:TextBox ID="pwd" TextMode="Password" Runat="server"/> Password<br><br> <asp:Button ID="button" Text="Login" OnClick="Authenticate" Runat="server" /> <br><br> <asp:Label ID="msg" Runat="server" /> </form> </body> </html>
85

User Identification With Cookies

How does ASP.NET remember if a user is already authenticated?
Client GET "A.aspx" HTML + cookie GET "B.aspx" + cookie HTML + cookie* This cookie tells the server that the user is already authenticated Server GET "Login.aspx" cookie identifies the user Login Server

Specifications about Cookies in the configuration file

name of the cookie to be generated

cookies should be encrypted

cookies should become invalid after 20 minutes

SOAP

Simple message protocol in XML

for packaging arbitrary application data single messages only (one-way) asynchronous

Independent of transport protocol SOAP does not define:

distributed object model communication protocol distributed garbage collection distributed events (distributed callbacks)
111

Application of SOAP
SOAP is extendable method call protocol (RPC) security authentication etc. Protocol realisation by combination of messages (message exchange patterns) one-way , request-response , multicast, e.g.: request-response for RPC by 2 messages

1: GetTime_Request 2: GetTime_Response

Client

Server
112

SOAP Messages
SOAP messages comparable to letters with
<Envelope> <Header> Message Header Message Header

envelope

<Body> Data

(<Envelope>) as container letter head (<Header>) with meta information (Message Headers)
letter

(<Body>)

<Fault> Fault Descriptions

with

arbitrary XML data

113

XML Structure (simplified SOAP 1.2)

<?xml version="1.0" ?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="..."> <soap:Header>  <m:my xmlns:m="anURI" soap:mustUnderstand=true" soap:role=uri2" /> ... </soap:Header> <soap:Body> data (depends on encoding and format) <soap:Fault> <soap:Code>...who is responsible?... </Code> <soap:Reason>...textual description...</soap:Reason> <soap:Detail>...more error details...</soap:Detail> </soap:Fault> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope>
114

Data in <Body> Part

Message format:
document structure defined by XML schema rpc structure defined by SOAP for RPC

Data encoding:
literal encoding defined by XML schema encoded encoding defined by SOAP encoding rules

Usual combinations:
document/literal standard in .NET

rpc/encoded

often used by Java

115

HTTP Binding

HTTP-GET, HTTP-POST
call encoded in HTTP (URL encoded) response encoded in XML

Restricted to simple calls (no headers, no structured data)

SOAP over HTTP-POST

data part of POST request contains SOAP encoded call response SOAP encoded

No restrictions
116

Example: HTTP-POST
Call of GetTime(bool shortForm) of web service

126

Including Types

SoapIncludeAttribute allows inclusion of types

Example: PersonService

important for specializations

Person has 2 specializations Customer and Employee
Person
[WebMethod] public Person[ ] GetAll() {}

Web method with return value of type Person[]

public class PersonService : WebService {

Customer

Employee

Customer and Employee have to be included explicitly into web service description!
127

Example: PersonService (1)

public abstract class Person { } public class Customer : Person { } public class Employee : Person {}

Classes Person, Customer and Employee

PersonService defines web method GetAll with return type Person[] SoapInclude attribute includes Customer and Employee types
<%@ WebService Language="C#" Class="PersonService" %> using System; using System.Xml.Serialization; public class PersonService : WebService { [WebMethod] [SoapRpcMethod] [SoapInclude(typeof(Customer)), SoapInclude(typeof(Employee))] public Person[] GetAll() { Person[] data = new Person[2]; data[0] = new Customer("1, "Max Customer", "EMP-33"); data[1] = new Employee("EMP-33", "Tom Employee"); return data; } }

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" ... > <soap:Body soap:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"> <tns:GetAllResponse> <GetAllResult href="#id1" /> </tns:GetAllResponse> <soapenc:Array id="id1" soapenc:arrayType="types:Person[2]"> <Item href="#id2" /> <Item href="#id3" /> </soapenc:Array> <types:Customer id="id2" xsi:type="types:Customer"> <SSN xsi:type="xsd:string">1</SSN> <Name xsi:type="xsd:string">Max Customer</Name> <EmpSSN xsi:type="xsd:string">EMP-33</EmpSSN> </types:Customer> <types:Employee id="id3" xsi:type="types:Employee"> <SSN xsi:type="xsd:string">EMP-33</SSN> <Name xsi:type="xsd:string">Tom Employee</Name> </types:Employee> </soap:Body> 129 </soap:Envelope>

SOAP Header Entries

SOAP header entries are used for metainfos in messages Arbitrary header entries are possible All header entries have attributes
recipient of entry (Actor) if it must be handled by recipient (mustUnderstand)

.NET supports header entries by:

Class SoapHeader: development of header entry classes
Attribute SoapHeaderAttribute: Defining header entries for web methods
130

SoapHeader and SoapHeaderAttribute

SoapHeader
//----- properties public string Actor { get; set; } public bool MustUnderstand { get; set; } public bool DidUnderstand { get; set; } ...

SoapHeaderAttribute
//----- properties public SoapHeaderDirection Direction {get; set;} public string MemberName {get; set;} ...

Recipient
public string Actor {get; set;}

In-, Out-, InOut direction of headers

public SoapHeaderDirection Direction {get; set;}

Header must be handled

public bool MustUnderstand {get; set;}

Name of field of web service class for header entry

public string MemberName {get; set;}

Header handled successfully

public bool DidUnderstand {get; set;}

131

Example: AuthHeader (1)

User indentification in TimeService
Login returns identification code (cookie) GetTime sends back identification code in header entry

Header class AuthHeader defines public field cookie

public class AuthHeader : SoapHeader { public string cookie; }

Web service class defines field curUser to store AuthHeader object

[WebService(Namespace="http://dotnet.jku.at/time/")] public class HeaderTimeService : WebService { public AuthHeader curUser;

Login with user and password returns identification string

[WebMethod (Description="Authenticates the user")] public string Login(string user, string pwd) { ... create cookie ... } bool ValidateCookie(string cookie) { ... validate cookie ... }
132

Example: AuthHeader (2)

GetTime requires header entry of type AuthHeader which will be stored in field curUser Validates user based on login data
[WebMethod(Description="Returns the current time")] [SoapHeader("curUser")] public string GetTime() { if (curUser != null && ValidateCookie(curUser.cookie)) return System.DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString(); else throw new SoapHeaderException("Access denied!", SoapException.ClientFaultCode); }

133

Example: AuthHeader (3)

Client

creates service proxy and AutHeader object

HeaderTimeService proxy = new HeaderTimeService(); AuthHeader entry = new AuthHeader();

receives cookie from call to Login

entry.cookie = proxy.Login(user, pwd);

sets the AuthorHeader in proxy calls GetTime with AuthHeader header entry
entry.cookie = proxy.Login(user, pwd); proxy.AuthHeaderValue = entry; Console.WriteLine(proxy.GetTime());
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://..." ... > <soap:Header> <AuthHeader xmlns="http://dotnet.jku.at/time/"> <cookie>aewt12348cvNNgrt55</cookie> </AuthHeader> </soap:Header> <soap:Body> <GetTime xmlns="http://dotnet.jku.at/time/" /> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> 134

Life Cycle
Web service objects are stateless Are created for each call public HttpApplicationState {get;} Data can be storedApplication in properties of Application state object or

public HttpApplicationState Session {get;}

public sealed class HttpSessionState : ICollection, IEnumerable { Sesssion state object public object this[ string name ] {get; set;} public object this[ int index ] {get; set;} }
135

Example: StateDemo (1)

Web service StateDemo demonstrates storage of data
<%@ WebService Language="C#" Class="StateDemo" %> using System.Web.Services; [WebService(Namespace="http://dotnet.jku.at/StateDemo/")] public class StateDemo : WebService {

IncApplication increases property "Hit" of Application state object

[WebMethod()] public int IncApplication() { int hit = (Application["Hit"] == null) ? 0 : (int) Application["Hit"]; hit++; Application["Hit"] = hit; return hit; }

136

Example: StateDemo (2)

Parameter EnableSession enables usage of Session object IncSeesion increases property "Hit" of Session state object
[WebMethod(EnableSession=true)] public int IncSession() { int hit = (Session["Hit"] == null) ? 0 : (int) Session["Hit"]; hit++; Session["Hit"] = hit; return hit; } }
