best suggestion ..use SOAP Headers inherit SoapHeader in ur class
Wht it does is On everycall of webservice method it will chekc for authentication ( a common method to authenticate all calls to webmethods)
look at this code :)
Please see the ValidationSoapHeader class defined below:
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
/// <summary>
/// Summary description for ePhoneCredentials
/// </summary>
public class ValidationSoapHeader : SoapHeader
{
private string _devToken;
public ValidationSoapHeader()
{
}
public ValidationSoapHeader(string devToken)
{
this._devToken = devToken;
}
public string DevToken
{
get { return this._devToken; }
set { this._devToken = value; }
}
}
As for the client side. I created a simple console application and added the web service as a reference in the project.
localhost.ValidationSoapHeader header = new ConsoleMyCsharpClient.localhost.ValidationSoapHeader();
header.DevToken = "12345";
localhost.Service ws = new ConsoleMyCsharpClient.localhost.Service();
ws.ValidationSoapHeaderValue = header;
Console.WriteLine(ws.HelloWorld());
Console.ReadLine();
You see the instantiation of the header and I assign the DevToken. If I had not passed in a header or passed in the wrong value we would receive an "Authentication Failed" exception.

Hi,
I guess you want authentication should be done for fist time not for every method. In this case you have to check Isauthenticate function in constructor. You can use soapheader for sending credentials and check in IsAuthenticate method.
