Definition

public:
 property bool UseAuthentication { bool get(); void set(bool value); };
[System.Messaging.MessagingDescription("MsgUseAuthentication")]
public bool UseAuthentication { get; set; }
[<System.Messaging.MessagingDescription("MsgUseAuthentication")>]
member this.UseAuthentication : bool with get, set
Public Property UseAuthentication As Boolean

Property Value

Boolean

true if the sending application requested authentication for the message; otherwise, false.

Attributes
MessagingDescriptionAttribute

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

The message queue is filtered to ignore the UseAuthentication property.

Remarks

The UseAuthentication property specifies whether the message needs to be authenticated. If the sending application requests authentication, Message Queuing creates a digital signature and uses it to sign the message when it is sent and authenticate the message when it is received.

If UseAuthentication is false and a message is sent to a queue that accepts only authenticated messages, the message will be rejected when it reaches the queue.

You cannot determine if a message failed authentication by looking at its properties. Message Queuing discards such messages before they are delivered to the queue. However, you can request that an acknowledgment message be sent if a delivery failure prevents a message from arriving in the queue.
