Question : In .net, how can i write a userID and password validation method using linq?
Please fix in the following method. Appreciate the help. The error I receive is below:
Private Function isValidLogin(ByVal userID as String, ByVal pwd as String) as Boolean
'=== Here is what I have and what I need:
'=========================
==========
==========
==========
==========
=========
'=== 1. Binary Encrypt pwd (already have a method for that)
'=== 2. Use linq to obtain the ORI if login credentials are valid.
'=========================
==========

=========
Dim db As New TransactionDataDataContext
Dim binaryPassword As System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlBi
nary = BinaryCrypto.BinaryEncrypt
(pwd)
Try
Dim loggedin = From Login In db.UserTables
Where Login.Username.ToLower = userID.ToLower And Login.Password = BinaryPassword
Select Login.ORI
If loggedin.Count > 0 Then Return loggedin.ToList(0)
Catch ex As Exception
msg = "An error occured while logging in: " & ex.ToString
Return Nothing
Finally
db = Nothing
End Try
msg = "The login credentials entered are incorrect. Please try again."
Return Nothing
End Function
NOTE: The database column 'Password' is a varbinary Type.
Error:
Overload resolution failed because no accessible '=' can be called with these arguments:
'Public Shared Operator =(x As System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlBi
nary, y As System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlBi
nary) As System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlBo
olean': Value of type 'System.Data.Linq.Binary' cannot be converted to 'System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlB
inary'.
'Public Shared Operator =(binary1 As System.Data.Linq.Binary, binary2 As System.Data.Linq.Binary) As Boolean': Value of type 'System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlB
inary' cannot be converted to 'System.Data.Linq.Binary'.
