So, I was trying to set expiration time on claims in mvc. That is the code:
public class Startup
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
app.UseCookieAuthentication(new Microsoft.Owin.Security.Cookies.CookieAuthenticationOptions
{
AuthenticationType = "ApplicationCookie",
LoginPath = new PathString("/Main/LogIn"),
Provider = new CookieAuthenticationProvider
{
ExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(5),
SlidingExpiration = true
}
});
}
}
And both, ExpireTimeSpan
and SlidingExpiration
are underlined with red saying that:'CookieAuthenticationProvider' does not contain a definition for 'SlidingExpiration/ExpireTimeSpan'
. Claims expiration time.
I'm new to it and was wondering what am I doing wrong here or what should I do to fix this problem.
They belong to CookieAuthenticationOptions
instead of the provider. That should resolve it.
CookieAuthenticationOptions
app.UseCookieAuthentication(new Microsoft.Owin.Security.Cookies.CookieAuthenticationOptions
{
AuthenticationType = "ApplicationCookie",
LoginPath = new PathString("/Main/LogIn"),
Provider = new CookieAuthenticationProvider(),
ExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(5),
SlidingExpiration = true
});
