  Login and Logout Cookie

  May 03, 2012 05:22 PM|LINK

  If I need to write the logout for the following login:

  bool AutoLoginCheckBox = ((Login)this.LoginView.FindControl("LoginControl")).RememberMeSet;
              string username = ((Login)this.LoginView.FindControl("LoginControl")).UserName;
  
              AutoLoginCookie alCookie = new AutoLoginCookie();
  
  
              if (!alCookie.HasValue ||
                  (alCookie.HasValue && (alCookie.GetValue() != AutoLoginCheckBox)))
              {
                  alCookie.Write(AutoLoginCheckBox);
              }
  
  
              HttpCookie formsAuthCookie;
              formsAuthCookie = FormsAuthentication.GetAuthCookie(username, AutoLoginCheckBox);
  
              UserCookie userCookie = csContext.User.GetUserCookie();
              userCookie.WriteCookie(formsAuthCookie, 30, AutoLoginCheckBox);

  Check out this explanation and code for clearing the session and authentication cookies.

  In the responses in that article, people are telling that the SignOut Method doesn't remove the authentication ticket, so after calling the SignOut method you need to remove it anyway. This is non-sense. If the Signout method would not remove the authentication ticket, why calling it? The one and only thing the SignOut method should be  doing is to remove the authentication cookie, and I never any experienced a bug in this....
