ISecurityEncodable.FromXml(SecurityElement) Method

Definition

Reconstructs a security object with a specified state from an XML encoding.

public:
 void FromXml(System::Security::SecurityElement ^ e);
public void FromXml(System.Security.SecurityElement e);
abstract member FromXml : System.Security.SecurityElement -> unit
Public Sub FromXml (e As SecurityElement)

Parameters

e
SecurityElement

The XML encoding to use to reconstruct the security object.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates implementing the FromXml method. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the ISecurityEncodable class.

// Populate the permission's fields from XML.
public override void FromXml(SecurityElement e)
{
    m_specifiedAsUnrestricted = false;
    m_flags = 0;

    // If XML indicates an unrestricted permission, make this permission unrestricted.
    String s = (String)e.Attributes["Unrestricted"];
    if (s != null)
    {
        m_specifiedAsUnrestricted = Convert.ToBoolean(s);
        if (m_specifiedAsUnrestricted)
            m_flags = SoundPermissionState.PlayAnySound;
    }

    // If XML indicates a restricted permission, parse the flags.
    if (!m_specifiedAsUnrestricted)
    {
        s = (String)e.Attributes["Flags"];
        if (s != null)
        {
            m_flags = (SoundPermissionState)
            Convert.ToInt32(Enum.Parse(typeof(SoundPermission), s, true));
        }
    }
}
' Populate the permission's fields from XML.
Public Overrides Sub FromXml(ByVal e As SecurityElement)
    m_specifiedAsUnrestricted = False
    m_flags = 0

    ' If XML indicates an unrestricted permission, make this permission unrestricted.
    Dim s As String = CStr(e.Attributes("Unrestricted"))
    If Not (s Is Nothing) Then
        m_specifiedAsUnrestricted = Convert.ToBoolean(s)
        If m_specifiedAsUnrestricted Then
            m_flags = SoundPermissionState.PlayAnySound
        End If
    End If
    ' If XML indicates a restricted permission, parse the flags.
    If Not m_specifiedAsUnrestricted Then
        s = CStr(e.Attributes("Flags"))
        If Not (s Is Nothing) Then
            m_flags = CType(Convert.ToInt32([Enum].Parse(GetType(SoundPermission), s, True)), SoundPermissionState)
        End If
    End If

End Sub

Remarks

Custom code that extends security objects needs to implement the ToXml and FromXml methods to make the objects security-encodable.
