The .NET SDK is implemented in C#, only using features that are part of the Microsoft Common Language Specification (CLS). The .NET SDK is therefore accessible from applications written in any language that supports the CLS, for example, Visual Basic .NET, Visual C# .NET, and Visual C++ .NET.
The .NET SDK interfaces are available through the CA.Federation.FedIdentitySdk.dll. .NET applications can reference this DLL using the namespace CA.Federation.FedIdentitySdk.
The .NET application has to pass cookie zone, cookie name, and the shared secret to the .NET SDK. The .NET application can store this data in any way convenient, for example, in a configuration file. The application can encrypt the password, but must decrypt it before passing it to the .NET SDK. The password must be passed as a plain text character array. The configuration values of cookie zone, cookie name, and encryption password must be the same at both the sides (the .NET Application and Federation Manager). These values are communicated out-of-band.
