ConfigurationSection.SetAllowLocation Method

Sets the allowLocation attribute for a configuration section.

Syntax

ConfigurationSection.SetAllowLocation(AllowLocation)  

ConfigurationSection.SetAllowLocation(AllowLocation);  

Parameters

Return Value

This method does not return a value.

Remarks

The allowLocation attribute specifies whether a configuration section can appear inside a pair of location tags.

Because SetAllowLocation is a static method, you should call it by getting a class object, as in the following example.

' Correct syntax:  
Set oAnonAuth = oWebAdmin.Get("AnonymousAuthenticationSection")  
oAnonAuth.SetAllowLocation "false"  

The following syntax fails because it tries to call SetAllowLocation on a concrete instance of the Site class. The call to the method will cause an "SWbemObjectEx: Not found" error.

  
' Incorrect syntax:  
Set oSite = oWebAdmin.Get("Site.Name='Default Web Site'")  
oSite.GetSection "AnonymousAuthenticationSection", oAnonAuth  
oAnonAuth.SetAllowLocation "false"  

Example

The following example sets the allowLocation attribute for the Anonymous authentication configuration section.

' Get the WebAdministration namespace.  
Set oWebAdmin = GetObject( _  
    "winmgmts:root\WebAdministration")  
  
' Get the AnonymousAuthenticationSection.  
Set oAnonAuth = oWebAdmin.Get( _  
    "AnonymousAuthenticationSection")  
  
' Set the allowLocation attribute.  
oAnonAuth.GetAllowLocation "false"
