PrincipalPolicyserializable

System.Security.Principal (mscorlib.dll)enum
public enum PrincipalPolicy {
   UnauthenticatedPrincipal = 0,NoPrincipal = 1,WindowsPrincipal = 2
}

The values of this enumeration are used in the System.AppDomain.SetPrincipalPolicy( ) method. SetPrincipalPolicy( ) specifies how default IIdentity and IPrincipal objects are created for threads running in the application domain if an IPrincipal has not been assigned to the thread by the program or host.

The value NoPrincipal means that the runtime does not create default identity or principal objects for a thread. UnauthenticatedPrincipal means that the runtime will assign threads a GenericPrincipal containing an empty role set and a GenericIdentity that represents an unnamed user. The WindowsPrincipal value causes the runtime to create a WindowsPrincipal object and assign it to the thread. The WindowsPrincipal object contains a WindowsIdentity that represents the currently active Windows user account and a set of roles that represent the Windows user groups to which the user belongs. UnauthenticatedPrincipal is the default value.
