Thread Safety

Public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are safe for multithreaded operations. Instance members are not guaranteed to be thread-safe.

Remarks

This class is used by WinForm application to manage user settings. The Membership class provides the same facilities as the System.Web.Security.Membership class:

• Creating new users.

• Storing membership information (user names, passwords, e-mail addresses, and supporting data) in a Visual Guard repository.

• Managing passwords, which includes creating, changing, retrieving, and resetting them, and so on. You can optionally configure the Visual Guard repository to require a password question and answer to authenticate password reset or retrieval requests for users that have forgotten their password.

This class can interact with VGRoles class to manage user membership in roles for authorization checking.
