Web Forms: Yet another No Touch Deployment Issue

  • anonymous / 205 / Fri, 27 Mar 2009 21:55:00 GMT / Comments (7)
  • Hi,
    I am writing an application that has to be run via a web browser and it also
    must run using the default security settings for an internet application
    (Framework 1.1). Which is the lowest setting.
    Part of the Design Specs is that each user's preferences are saved. I
    thought about using Isolated Storage for this and saving the User's Settings
    to a xml config file, but I can't save to Isolated Storage with the Default
    Security Settings. Does anyone have any other suggestions I can try? I
    know I can store the info on the web server as well and access via a
    WebService, but I was hoping for a way to accomplish this without storing
    the information on the Server.

    TIA,
    --
    Paul

    1. Default security settings basically allows you to display forms and to talk
      back to the server where the app was loaded from, no access to resources
      like disks, registry, etc, so the only option is to store it on the server.

      I dont know if it possible from within a winform, but maybe you have access
      to some cookie functionality. Dont know. Just a thougt. This is the only
      writeToDisk operation wich should be allowed on nearly all security setting
      i can think of...at least within a webforms app...

    3. Chris,Flare,
      Thanks for the input.
      That is what I figured, but I was hoping just maybe there was another
      possibility...

      Cheers,
      Paul

    4. After reading some more articles on No Touch Deployment I found that you can
      use Isolated Storage with the Default Security Permissions for an Internet
      Application. I was creating my Isolated Storage with the wrong Scope.
      Thanks to Chris Sells article on MSDN I was able to resolve my issue.

      Cheers,
      Paul

    5. Paul, do you mind posting the URL of the article here.

      Thanks,
      Chris.

    6. Chris,
      I am pretty sure this is the right article. Chirs Sells has written several
      on MSDN regarding 'Smart' Clients
      http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/07/NetSmartClients/

      Cheers,
      Paul
