Introduction:
In this article I will explain how to assign roles to users and remove roles from users and how populate user roles based on username selection in asp.net membership.
Description:
In previous post I explained clearly about create users using CreateUserWizard in asp.net membership or programmatically insert user details in membership and create or removes roles in asp.net membership. Now I will explain how to populate roles based on username selection and assign or remove roles to users based on username.

Description:
In previous post I explained clearly about create users using CreateUserWizard in asp.net membership or programmatically insert user details in membership and create or removes roles in asp.net membership. Now I will explain how to populate roles based on username selection and assign or remove roles to users based on username.
Here I am using above concepts to create users and create new roles in our project setup membership database in our SQL Server and insert user details in database.
After completion of database setup, user accounts creation and roles creation open visual studio and create new web application after that open aspx page and write following code
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
<title>Assign and Delete Roles to User in asp.net Membership</title>
<style type="text/css">
.GridviewDiv {font-size: 100%; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Verdana, Arial, Helevetica, sans-serif; color: #303933;}
Table.Gridview{border:solid 1px #df5015;}
.Gridview th{color:#FFFFFF;border-right-color:#abb079;border-bottom-color:#abb079;padding:0.5em 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;text-align:center}
.Gridview td{border-bottom-color:#f0f2da;border-right-color:#f0f2da;padding:0.5em 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em;}
.Gridview tr{color: Black; background-color: White; text-align:left}
:link,:visited { color: #DF4F13; text-decoration:none }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div class="GridviewDiv">
<table align="center">
<tr>
<td> <b>Select User:</b> </td>
<td><asp:DropDownList ID="ddlUsers" runat="server" AutoPostBack="true" onselectedindexchanged="ddlUsers_SelectedIndexChanged"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<asp:GridView ID="gvRoles" runat="server" CssClass="Gridview" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<HeaderStyle BackColor="#df5015" />
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="chkRole" runat="server" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Role Name">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblRole" runat="server" Text="<%#Container.DataItem %>"/>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><asp:Button ID="btnAssign" runat="server" Text="Assign or UnAssign" onclick="btnAssign_Click" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<div align="center">
<asp:Label ID="lblSuccess" runat="server" Font-Bold="true"/>
<br />
<asp:Label ID="lblError" runat="server" Font-Bold="true"/>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Now open code behind file and add following namespaces
C# Code
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
|
After add namespaces write the following code
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
BindUserDetails();
BindRoles();
}
}
// Bind User Names to Dropdownlist
protected void BindUserDetails()
{
ddlUsers.DataSource = Membership.GetAllUsers();
ddlUsers.DataTextField = "UserName";
ddlUsers.DataValueField = "UserName";
ddlUsers.DataBind();
ddlUsers.Items.Insert(0,new ListItem("--Select User--", "0"));
}
// Bind Roles to Gridview
protected void BindRoles()
{
gvRoles.DataSource = Roles.GetAllRoles();
gvRoles.DataBind();
}
// This event is used to assign roles to particular user
protected void btnAssign_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string userName = ddlUsers.SelectedItem.Text;
string[] userRoles = Roles.GetRolesForUser(userName);
string errorMessage = string.Empty;
string successMessage = string.Empty;
string roleName = string.Empty;
int i = 0;
int j = 0;
foreach(GridViewRow gvrow in gvRoles.Rows)
{
CheckBox chk = (CheckBox)gvrow.FindControl("chkRole");
Label lbl = (Label)gvrow.FindControl("lblRole");
roleName = lbl.Text;
if(chk.Checked)
{
int index = Array.IndexOf(userRoles, roleName);
if (index == -1)
{
Roles.AddUserToRole(userName, roleName);
successMessage += roleName + ", ";
j++;
}
}
else
{
int index = Array.IndexOf(userRoles, roleName);
if (index > -1)
{
// Remove the user from the role
Roles.RemoveUserFromRole(userName, roleName);
errorMessage += roleName + ", ";
i++;
}
}
}
if(errorMessage!=string.Empty)
{
if(i>1)
{
lblError.Text = userName+ " was removed from roles " +errorMessage.Substring(0, errorMessage.Length - 2);
}
else
{
lblError.Text = userName + " was removed from role " + errorMessage.Substring(0, errorMessage.Length - 2);
}
lblError.ForeColor = Color.Red;
}
else
{
lblError.Text = string.Empty;
}
if (successMessage != string.Empty)
{
if (j > 1)
{
lblSuccess.Text = successMessage.Substring(0, successMessage.Length - 2) + " roles assigned to " + userName;
}
else
{
lblSuccess.Text = successMessage.Substring(0, successMessage.Length - 2) + " role assigned to " + userName;
}
lblSuccess.ForeColor = Color.Green;
}
else
{
lblSuccess.Text = string.Empty;
}
}
// This event is used to populate checkboxes based on roles for particular user
protected void ddlUsers_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
lblSuccess.Text = string.Empty;
lblError.Text = string.Empty;
string userName = ddlUsers.SelectedItem.Text;
string[] userRoles = Roles.GetRolesForUser(userName);
string rolename = string.Empty;
foreach (GridViewRow gvrow in gvRoles.Rows)
{
CheckBox chk = (CheckBox) gvrow.FindControl("chkRole");
Label lbl = (Label)gvrow.FindControl("lblRole");
rolename = lbl.Text;
int index = Array.IndexOf(userRoles, rolename);
if (index >-1)
{
chk.Checked = true;
}
else
{
chk.Checked = false;
}
}
}

Here don’t forgot to set database connection settings in web.config
First set the connectionstring like this
<connectionStrings>
<add name="dbconnection" connectionString="Data Source=SureshDasari;Initial Catalog=AspMembership;Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
</connectionStrings>
|
After that write the following code in system.web section
<membership>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</membership>
<profile>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</profile>
<roleManager enabled="true">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</roleManager>
|
Now run your application and check your output
