UriIdentifier Class

Represents a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for use in certificate trust lists (CTLs).

Assembly: System (in System.dll)

Syntax

public sealed class UriIdentifier : ICloneable

Inheritance Hierarchy

Object
UriIdentifier

Interfaces

ICloneable

Remarks

The UriIdentifier class is used to represent a URI in a certificate trust list (CTL). CTLs are used to store lists of trusted certificates and are often used in applications that require high security, such as those that use SSL/TLS for secure communication.

This class provides methods for creating, cloning, and comparing URIs. It ensures that URIs are represented in a canonical format, which helps in reliable comparison and identification.

Constructors

Name	Description
UriIdentifier(string uri)	Initializes a new instance of the UriIdentifier class with the specified URI.
UriIdentifier(Uri uri)	Initializes a new instance of the UriIdentifier class with the specified Uri object.

Methods

Name	Description
Clone()	Creates a new object that is a copy of the current instance.
Equals(object o)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function.
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance.
ToString()	Returns a string representation of the URI identifier.

Properties

Name	Description
Uri	Gets the Uri object.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to create and use a UriIdentifier object.

using System;
using System.Net.Security;

public class Example
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        string uriString = "https://www.example.com/resource";
        Uri baseUri = new Uri(uriString);

        // Create UriIdentifier from string
        UriIdentifier id1 = new UriIdentifier(uriString);
        Console.WriteLine($"Created UriIdentifier from string: {id1}");

        // Create UriIdentifier from Uri object
        UriIdentifier id2 = new UriIdentifier(baseUri);
        Console.WriteLine($"Created UriIdentifier from Uri object: {id2}");

        // Check for equality
        if (id1.Equals(id2))
        {
            Console.WriteLine("id1 and id2 are equal.");
        }

        // Clone UriIdentifier
        UriIdentifier clonedId = (UriIdentifier)id1.Clone();
        Console.WriteLine($"Cloned UriIdentifier: {clonedId}");

        // Access the underlying Uri object
        Uri actualUri = id2.Uri;
        Console.WriteLine($"Underlying Uri: {actualUri.AbsoluteUri}");
    }
}
