IAuthorizationPolicy.Evaluate(EvaluationContext, Object) Method

public:
 bool Evaluate(System::IdentityModel::Policy::EvaluationContext ^ evaluationContext, System::Object ^ % state);

public bool Evaluate (System.IdentityModel.Policy.EvaluationContext evaluationContext, ref object state);

abstract member Evaluate : System.IdentityModel.Policy.EvaluationContext * obj -> bool

Public Function Evaluate (evaluationContext As EvaluationContext, ByRef state As Object) As Boolean

Parameters

Returns

false if the Evaluate(EvaluationContext, Object) method for this authorization policy must be called if additional claims are added by other authorization policies to evaluationContext; otherwise, true to state no additional evaluation is required by this authorization policy.

Examples

    // If state is null, then this method has not been called before, so

    }
    else

Remarks

Implementers of the IAuthorizationPolicy interface can use the state parameter to track state between calls to the Evaluate method. If a state object is set inside a given call to the Evaluate method, the same object instance is passed to each and every subsequent call to the Evaluate method in the current evaluation process.
