public:
 static System::IdentityModel::Selectors::X509CertificateValidator ^ CreatePeerOrChainTrustValidator(bool useMachineContext, System::Security::Cryptography::X509Certificates::X509ChainPolicy ^ chainPolicy);

public static System.IdentityModel.Selectors.X509CertificateValidator CreatePeerOrChainTrustValidator (bool useMachineContext, System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509ChainPolicy chainPolicy);

static member CreatePeerOrChainTrustValidator : bool * System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509ChainPolicy -> System.IdentityModel.Selectors.X509CertificateValidator

Public Shared Function CreatePeerOrChainTrustValidator (useMachineContext As Boolean, chainPolicy As X509ChainPolicy) As X509CertificateValidator

Parameters

useMachineContext: Boolean

true to use the machine context; false to use the current user context.

chainPolicy: X509ChainPolicy

An X509ChainPolicy that specifies the policy used to build the trust chain.

Returns

X509CertificateValidator

A X509CertificateValidator that verifies the certificate is in the TrustedPeople certificate store or by building a certificate trust chain.

Remarks

Use the CreatePeerOrChainTrustValidator method instead of the PeerOrChainTrust property to specify the context or to set chain policy. Chain policy can be used to specify the Enhanced Key Usage (EKU) for which the chain should be validated, or specify revocation checking.

The value of this static property can be supplied as a parameter to one of the constructors for the X509SecurityTokenAuthenticator class.
