I am using Visual Studio 2013. I have a ASP.net (vb) Webforms site with asp.net identity. I trying to create a page that manages User role and create roles. I cant find any help online for this when it comes to web forms. This code works for asp.net membership but not for Identity. Here is my code. Please help Thanks.
Imports Microsoft.AspNet.Identity
Imports Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
Imports Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Owin
Imports Microsoft.Owin.Security
Imports Owin
Partial Class AssignRoles
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Protected Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Roles.AddUserToRole(DropDownList5.SelectedValue, DropDownList6.SelectedValue)
Label1.Text = DropDownList5.SelectedValue + " Was added to the " + DropDownList6.SelectedValue + " Role."
End Sub
Protected Sub btnremoverole_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnremoverole.Click
Roles.RemoveUserFromRole(DropDownList3.SelectedValue, DropDownList4.SelectedValue)
Label1.Text = DropDownList3.SelectedValue + " Was removed from the " + DropDownList4.SelectedValue + " Role."
End Sub
Protected Sub CreateRole_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles CreateRole.Click
Dim createRole As String = RoleTextBox.Text
Try
If Roles.RoleExists(createRole) Then
Msg.Text = "Role '" & Server.HtmlEncode(createRole) & "' already exists. Please specify a different role name."
Return
End If
Roles.CreateRole(createRole)
Msg.Text = "Role '" & Server.HtmlEncode(createRole) & "' created."
' Re-bind roles to GridView.
Catch
Msg.Text = "Role '" & Server.HtmlEncode(createRole) & "' <u>not</u> created."
End Try
End Sub
End Class
Here is the Markup code
