Re: how to prevent auth ticket expiration

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

The event handler goes in global.asax. Modules that fire events can have those events handled in global.asax via ModuleName_EventName syntax. Here's the event decl:

I searched the whole MSDN library and there is no OnAuthenticate
event. This is a good idea but how do I override this event and where
is this event?

The closest I could find is "AddOnAuthenticateRequestAsync" but I have
no idea how to implement this. It does not even show in the methods
that can be overriden in the IDE. It passes two delegates and this
async stuff makes me shudder. I could not find any examples of how
this works.

Thanks

Maybe there is another way to prevent the auth ticket from updating
for a specified page. Can't this process be intercepted and
overriden in some place?

Actually, there is one other idea. The FormsAuthModule fires a
OnAuthenticate event which you can use to specify the user. If you
specify a method:

void FormsAuthentication_Authenticate(object s,
FormsAuthenticationEventArgs e)
{
if (HttpContext.Current.Request.Path == "ThePathIWantToIgnore.aspx")
{
e.User = new GenericPrincipal(new GenericIdentity(string.Empty,
string.Empty), new string[0]);
}
}
If you specify the identity, it won't be read from the forms auth
cookie, and you won't get the extention of the cookie timeout. I
don't know why I didn't think of this earlier.
