Today I got the Mono' implementation of WSE to send a SOAP request containing a WS-Security UsernameToken (based on the first sample of MSDN's WS-Security Authentication and Digital Signatures with Web Services Enhancements) and Timestamp. However this only works (right now) under Windows. Now I just got to make this works with the mono runtime, then make the web service runs under XSP.
What I really like about WSE it's that it doesn't requires much code to use. Here's the sample client code:
<![CDATA[using System;
using Microsoft.Web.Services.Security;
class UsernameTokenTest {
[STAThread]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Username proxy = new Username ();
UsernameToken tok = new UsernameToken ("poupou", "password", PasswordOption.SendHashed);
proxy.RequestSoapContext.Security.Tokens.Add (tok);
try {
Console.WriteLine (proxy.PersonnalHello ());
}
catch (Exception e) {
Console.WriteLine (e.ToString ());
}
}
}
]]>
And the service code:
<![CDATA[[WebMethod]
public string PersonnalHello ()
{
string response = "";
SoapContext requestContext = HttpSoapContext.RequestContext;
if (requestContext == null)
throw new ApplicationException ("non SOAP request");
foreach (SecurityToken tok in requestContext.Security.Tokens) {
if (tok is UsernameToken)
response += "Hello " + ((UsernameToken)tok).Username;
}
if (response == "")
response = "unauthenticated request";
return response;
}
]]>
and, finally, the PasswordProvider:
<![CDATA[public class PasswordProvider : IPasswordProvider
{
public string GetPassword (UsernameToken token)
{
return "password";
}
}
]]>
Never been so excited to see Hello poupou written on the console ;-)
